George Zimmerman has been arrested again, The Associated Press reports.
The 31-year-old Florida man was arrested in Lake Mary on Friday night, authorities said, and he was held overnight ahead of a Saturday morning court appearance, where his bond was set at $5,000. Zimmerman was ordered not to have further contact with the alleged female victim. The incident reportedly occurred at Zimmerman's home, and he was ordered to turn over any firearms at the residence, along with any possessions the woman left behind, to his lawyer.
