Martin was shot in Florida on Feb. 26th by Zimmerman, a man claiming to be a neighborhood watchman, in a gated community.
Trayvon was unarmed and walking through the community when he was pursued by Zimmerman – who claimed the boy looked “suspicious.” At some point during the pursuit, Zimmerman shot and killed Martin, claiming that he felt “threatened.”
