It appears that George Zimmerman, who has survived the violent attack by Treyvon Martin, survived the media persecution, survived the trial, had his marriage destroyed and a reward posted on his head for the temerity of surviving, has apparently survived an assassination attempt. A bullet narrowly missed George Zimmerman's head, leading to non-life threatening wounds. The man who tried to kill him, seems to have thought he had succeeded. From wesh.com:
Kenneth Cornell says that the shooter approached him:
George Zimmerman has to be one of the most reviled and maligned men in America. His sin is that he defended his life at a time when the Obama administration was looking for an incident to inflame black voters.
For the best analysis of the Zimmerman trial, Massad Ayoob has done the best job.
The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

Update: Conservativetreehouse is reporting that the shooter had stalked Zimmerman before. They say he is Matt Apperson:
Zimmerman's attorney Don West said a bullet missed Zimmerman's head, but he was sprayed with glass from his vehicle's windshield and other debris.
West said Zimmerman has been released from the hospital.
Kenneth Cornell says that the shooter approached him:
Kenneth Cornell told WESH 2’s Gail Paschall-Brown that he called 911 after the alleged shooter approached him and said, “I shot George Zimmerman.” Cornell said the alleged shooter then got on the phone with dispatch and explained what happened.From the orlandosentinel.com:
Lake Mary Chief Steve Bracknell said Zimmerman did not shoot, but another person — an unidentified person Zimmerman knows — shot at him.The media are already trying to somehow blame George Zimmerman for the shooting.
Police initially thought the shooting was a road-rage incident, but Bracknell said that might not be true.

Matt Apperson is the same guy who tried to gain fame in September of 2014 by claiming that George Zimmerman waved a gun at him during a road rage incident. (Full backstory of their prior two encounters outlined HERE)
