SANFORD, FL (Catholic Online) - Just four days after he was set free on murder charges, George Zimmerman has reemerged as a citizen hero, pulling two adults and two children from an overturned SUV with the help of another passerby.

According to authorities, they were called to the scene of an accident near Zimmerman's neighborhood near Interstate 4 and State Road 46. When sheriff's deputies arrived, they say Zimmerman and another person had already helped a family of four escape the vehicle.

According to reports, Zimmerman did not witness the single-car crash, and after leaving his information with the responding deputy, he left the scene.

No injuries were reported.

Zimmerman is expected to keep a low profile as public figures, including President Obama, continue to make speeches and order his investigation for civil right act violations against Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman killed Martin last year, on grounds of self defense, after he confronted the teen for his suspicious public behavior.

Certainly, the latest incident may make the narrative a bit more for Obama and other race-baiters a bit more difficult.
