I'm not American, relax yall.
Someone have the cliff notes for this?
Zimmerman was a "neighborhood watch" volunteer and saw a suspicious kid (Martin) walking through the neighborhood. He called 911 to report it. The dispatcher recommended he not follow Martin and wait for police. He continued to follow Martin, they eventually met, an altercation took place, and Zimmerman shot Martin.
Zimmerman asserts Martin attacked him and he responded with appropriate force.
The hubbub is because this happened almost 2 months ago and just now charges are being filed.
