Police: Store owner says he didn't hire Zimmerman for security | Local News - WESH Home
A DeLand police officer came across George Zimmerman early Sunday morning sitting in his truck outside a gun and motorcycle shop, according to the DeLand Police Department.
Police said they spotted Zimmerman sitting with his dog in the back of Pompano Pats on Woodland Boulevard around 12:30 a.m. Sunday.
Zimmerman said he was helping protect the store for the owner, Pat Johnson, after it was broken into recently.
"Did Pat hire you to watch over? You're just doing it as a friend? Oh, OK," the officer is heard saying on dashcam video.
Johnson, who is running for mayor in DeLand, confirmed to WESH 2 News that he befriended Zimmerman last summer but said he did not hire him to do security work.
He said Zimmerman has sat outside of his store several times on his own lately.
Johnson said he has received death threats after false reports that he hired Zimmerman.
