Police video: Zimmerman was in cuffs but not bloody. No obvious signs of injury.

[2501]

SANFORD, Fla. -- Sanford police marched a handcuffed George Zimmerman into police headquarters the night he shot and killed Trayvon Martin, and a video shot by a security camera picked up no obvious sign of injury to the Neighborhood Watch volunteer.

The video debuted this evening on ABC'sWorld News with Diane Sawyer.

Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon, an unarmed black 17-year-old from Miami Gardens Feb. 26.

Police say Zimmerman told them he shot Trayvon in self-defense after the 6-foot high school junior punched him, got on top of him then began banging his head into a sidewalk.

Zimmerman was bleeding from his nose and back of his head, according to a police report, but the video, provided ABC News by the city of Sanford, shows no obvious sign of injury.

He was tended at the scene by paramedics but told them he did not need to go to a hospital, police reported.

The video shows a somber Zimmerman, hands cuffed behind his back, stepping from a patrol car, surrounded by several officers, walking through a door, then returning.

this is getting old

GZ shouldn't have followed him

TM shouldn't have gotten physical when approached (not proven yet but what most likely happened according to witnesses)

Another Zimmerman thread? This is getting old indeed, every other thread in the lounge is about Zimmerman.

Helps to keep the bubbles small so you get a smooth head on it.

Notice that video didn't show the back of Zimmerman's head. If he'd had medical treatment you wouldn't expect his nose to be bloody.

But he was taken into custody which is at odds with the initial media reports which seem to suggest that after a cursory chat he was released at scene.

This does certainly make it apparent Zimmerman wasn't "beaten to a pulp". . . Still doesn't mean he didn't have a bloody cut on the back of his head; he was "treated" before he came in after all. .

Also, frmo a legal stance, it doesn't really matter if he wasn't "close to death", all that matters is Zimmerman "THOUGHT"(in his mind) (had grounds to "reasonably believe") - that he was at risk of loss of life or limb.

Don't worry the paramedics and police will have a record of his injuries they check and write down injuries as soon as you are booked in at custody.
