George Zimmerman is taken into custody after 'threatening wife with gun and punching her father in the nose after she confronted him over claims he was having an AFFAIR'

VIA: DM George Zimmerman was today questioned by police after allegedly threatening his estranged wife with a handgun in an altercation sparked by claims he has been having an affair, MailOnline can reveal. Friend and key defense witness John Donnelly told MailOnline: ‘George has been having an affair with his ex-fiancee. Shellie believes it flared back up after the acquittal.’ Zimmerman was engaged to beautician Veronica Zuazo, who herself filed a domestic violence complaint against him in a messy series of counter complaints that led to their split. Police were called to the Lake Mary, Florida residence owned by Shellie Zimmerman’s parents, David and Machelle Dean, after she made a panicked 911 call at around 2.15pm Monday. ’I'm really really afraid,’ Shellie says in the call, claiming Zimmerman punched her father in the nose and threatened to shoot them both. ‘I don’t know what he’s capable of. I’m really, really scared…

‘He’s in his car and he continually has his hand on his gun. He keeps staying “Step closer”. He’s just threatening all of us with his firearm. He’s going to shoot us. ’He punched my dad in the nose. My dad has a mark on the face. I saw his glasses on the floor.’
