George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer, says he shot Martin in self defense.

CNN's Anderson Cooper talks with a witness about the incident.

Cooper asked, what did you observe after the shot?

The eyewitness answered, "Um, as i said it was dark but after the shot obviously someone, a man got up, it was kind of like that period of him, I can't say i actually watched him get up but maybe only like a couple of seconds or so then he was walking toward where i was watching. and i could see him a little bit clearer, could see that it was a hispanic man and he was um, ya know, he didn't appear hurt or anything else he just kind of seemed i guess very worried or whatever walked like on the sidewalk at that point, his hand up to his forehead and then uh, another man came out with a flash light."
