Authorities say George Zimmerman threatened a private investigator working for a documentary film on Trayvon Martin.
Court records show Zimmerman was issued a summons for a May 30 arraignment on a charge of misdemeanour stalking.
A sheriff’s report says the investigator contacted Zimmerman in September on behalf of Michael Gasparro, who is making a documentary on Trayvon Martin. The series is being produced by rapper Jay-Z.
