A man who says he saw Trayvon Martin shot dead claims that the Florida teenager and his killer, George Zimmerman, were scuffling on the ground at the time with one on top of the other.

The first eyewitness account of the 17-year-old’s final moments emerged on Thursday night more than a month after the boy lost his life in an altercation with a neighbourhood watch leader in a gated community in Sanford.

The anonymous man said he reported to police details of what he saw on the evening of 26 February, which included watching the gunman walking away from the fight apparently uninjured.

It contradicts an allegation from Zimmerman’s father earlier in the day that the unarmed black teenager broke his son’s nose during the incident and also left him with bloody injuries from slamming the man’s head repeatedly on to a concrete pavement. The eyewitness says he saw no blood and that the entire confrontation took place only on grass.

“I saw two men on the ground, one on top of the other. I felt they were scuffling and I heard gunshots which to me were more like pops,” he said in an interview broadcast on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360, his voice disguised to protect his identity.

“I don’t know if was an echo but it definitely made more than one pop.
“After the larger man got off there was a boy, obviously now dead, on the ground facing down.

“It was dark. I can’t say I watched him get up, but in a couple of seconds or so he was walking towards where I was watching and I could see him a little bit clearer. It was a Hispanic man. He didn’t appear hurt or anything else. He just kind of seemed very worried with his hand up to his forehead.”

The man said that before opening his window and looking out, he had heard angry voices outside. “There was a loud, predominant voice. I couldn’t hear the words but this is not a regular conversation,” he said. “This is someone aggressively yelling at someone.”

He said there was a lull but the argument resumed and that was when he decided to see what was going on.

“I’m thinking something horrible is happening. I heard the yell for help and another excruciating kind of a yell, it didn’t even sound like a yell, it sounded so painful,” he said.

The Sanford Police Department, which has been criticised for not arresting Zimmerman, 28, would not confirm the witness’s account, referring questions to the office of Florida state attorney Angela Corey, appointed last week to oversee the case.

Nobody was available at Corey’s office to comment.

But Daryl Parks, attorney for Martin’s parents Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, said the story “answers a lot of questions”.

He said: “It is very clear this witness saw what happened and clearly indicated the person that he saw that did the shooting. The other part that really strikes out for me is that he seems to have not seen the apparent injuries from this altercation that Mr Zimmerman claims that he suffered.

“It seems clear that Zimmerman’s statement about Trayvon following him back to the truck is totally untrue because from this witness’s statement all the interaction happened in one particular area, so I think Mr Zimmerman will be arrested very soon.”

CCTV video which shows Zimmerman hours after the teenager’s death has also cast doubt on his claims that he was injured in a vicious fight with the victim. Earlier reports suggested that 17-year-old Martin had attacked Zimmerman first, with the bloodied gunman pulling the trigger in self-defence.

But in the footage, first aired by ABC news, Zimmerman’s head and face are clearly visible and there appears to be no sign of any wounds. There are no obvious indications of blood on the front of his T-shirt that could indicate evidence of a broken nose.

In one area I am delighted our practice has not caught up with what we preach. It has to do with how we treat others in light of some of the things we have said the Bible teaches.

I am eager to search for truth in the Bible, but I am not all that eager to believe what every Tom, Dick, and Harry says the Bible teaches. For I have heard a lot of harebrained ideas come from the mouths of few Tom’s and Harry’s. Would a false teaching Harry be a Harrytic?

Back to my point. The Bible is a lot like those Rorschach ink blot tests. You show one ink blot to someone and he says it reminds him of a giant panda bear. You show the same ink blot to another person and she says it looks just like the shadow of cloud over a wheat field. One lad went to a shrink who showed him ink blot after ink blot. The kid kept saying they reminded him of pizza. Finally his psychiatrist showed him one more ink blot in desperation. Again the young man said, “It looks like a pepperoni pizza with green olives and mushrooms.” The doctor sighed and said out loud, “You must have a one track mind, son.” To this the lad replied, “Hey, I’m not the one with all the pictures of pizza!” Good point.

Where was I? Oh, yes. Practice. We didn’t practice what we preached all those years of discontent. We circled the ecclesiastical wagons and excluded not only the Indians, but one another as well. Some fellowships claiming to have a genuine interest in unity kept drawing lines of demarcation that excluded so many others that the denominations grew smaller and smaller with more and more litmus tests of fidelity to God. Let me give you a few examples to make myself clear. Some of us claimed to have the exact and proper name for the body of Christ on earth. All others had the wrong names. We asserted that our number and choice of how worship may be rightfully offered to God were straight from the Scriptures, while all the other fellowships were polluted in the proper rituals to include. Oh, yes. We interpreted Scripture correctly. Others did not. We sort of had a monopoly on truth.

How pathetically arrogant! And I guess here is where I sit down on my major point in this little rambling essay. I thank almighty God we behaved better than we wrote in our brotherhood journals and church bulletins. I am glad we acted properly toward our neighbors rather than ranting some of the diatribes fired in staccato fashion from the pulpits of our churches. That we did generally treat people better than we preached is telling. Very telling.

Our behavior, being better than our theology, meant we knew better than to take some of the outrageous stands some of us took. Stands like “you can’t fellowship someone who thinks differently than you on a doctrinal matter.” Or how about “fellowship means endorsement”? Then there is the, often spoken in hushed tones, “We are the only ones going to heaven. All others are either lost or on the verge.”

Be not many of you teachers. Judge not that you not be judged. Stop it. “God forgive us for not practicing what we preached. And thank you for giving us the wisdom to do so. In Jesus’ name. Amen.”

“Let us stop passing judgment on one another” (Romans 14:13).

It was such a wonderful feeling to see people from all ova Jamaica an di worl come out inna dem finest white an all dem coloured fi mi enjoy mi birthday wid me. Mi haffi say big up to fadda God who mek it possible and of course him gimme the strength to survive all when di dutty heathen dem a try bring mi dung. But chu a inna God me trus an mi know who God bless no man curse dem a talk bout me and mi naa talk bout dem cause mi naa focus pon no locus!

Yuh have sum scumbag mind people who get up everyday and live pon people name and try fi assassinate dem character and always a try fi put the worst first or seek the worst spin pon a good situation. Me is a woman who talk di tings but fair in when I’m doing so. Mi no jus get up a dun people fi no reason and yuh have some toxic people who get up everyday wid dat as dem modus operandi. All when nutten bad no deh deh fi talk bout dem haffi create a story fi validate dem low-bite way of thinking. There is always gonna be people in life that you don’t like cause none a we anno Jesus Christ fi just happy wid everybody all di time … No nail mark no inna none a we hand so it is quiet understandable if yuh no like a person.

My problem is though that most of the time the disdain is coming from a place of misinformation, misperception and just plain bad mind and to how some a dem mind bad di word dem cyaa even join! Nuff time dem see people life and no know nutten at all and sit on the sidelines and judge and di hottest part bout it if yuh know a who an who a talk di tings dem bout yuh sumtime and dem stay bad and how dem life sad yuh woulda haffi jus laugh. Some people no inna no position fi a class and diss because if fi dem skeleton bone dem inna dem closet start rackle is a walking cemetary dem woulda have!

Mout cut cross way so it mek fi talk anyting but the utterances weh sum a dem mek yuh can tell seh a jealousy di way dem can go hard when dem a persecute yuh. But as me seh Jesus walked the earth a sinless man … heal the sick, raise di dead and turn wata into wine and dem still crucify him so who am I? We have a likke dutty hypocrite way inna dah country yah where we stereotype women who have a voice. The moment yuh have a brain and your own way of thinking yuh tend fi be public enemy numer 1!

The fact seh when fluffy woman a step dese days we step wid confidence and assurance mash up dem double standard and upset dem apple-cart! Mi never hear nobody too a lick out when the jokes were always on the “fat one” but how di ting tun up is a problem! Yuh have woman wid weight weh stay bad and yuh have skinny one weh stay bad too! It all boils down to di individual and their self-esteem and self awareness. Sum a dem love talk bout belly an girdle but if yuh have a certain weight belly haffi deh deh an girgle haffi wear das y dem mek dem!
