Police recover gun from Zimmerman, 2 guns from other man

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Police recovered a handgun from George Zimmerman and took two guns from a man accused of shooting at Zimmerman while both were driving, authorities said Tuesday.

Police also released a 911 call in which the caller says the other man, Matthew Apperson, told him he was forced to fire his gun Monday at the former neighborhood watch leader on a busy street in the Orlando suburb of Lake Mary.

"A guy says he had to shoot a guy through the window and he wants the police to come," the man said on the call. "He had to shoot at somebody. ... He said it was George Zimmerman."

Police have not said what led up to the shooting. Apperson's attorney, Mark NeJame, said the shooting was "a good, old-fashioned self-defense case."

Zimmerman suffered minor injuries from flying glass and debris.

Two guns were taken from Apperson's car, including a revolver that had a spent shell casing. Police officers also will execute a search warrant on Zimmerman's pickup truck, said Lake Mary police officer Bianca Gillett.

Both men had the guns legally.
