A Florida man who fired a gun at George Zimmerman's truck during a road-rage confrontation has been convicted of attempted second-degree murder. Local news outlets report jurors also found 37-year-old Matthew Apperson guilty Friday of shooting into a vehicle and aggravated assault with a firearm. He said he fired at Zimmerman because Zimmerman flashed a gun. But prosecutor Stewart Stone told jurors that Zimmerman's vehicle had tinted windows, which were rolled up during the confrontation. Zimmerman was acquitted three years ago in the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black 17-year-old.
