A judge ordered Zimmerman and his girlfriend, 27-year-old Samantha Scheibe, last month to surrender their firearms to the Seminole Country Sheriff's office after she accused him of pointing a gun at her during a fight.
"You put your gun in my freakin' face!" she yelled on the 911 call placed in mid-November.
But on Dec. 6, that story changed.
“When I was being questioned by police I felt very intimidated…I believe that the police misinterpreted me and that I may have misspoken about certain facts in my statement to police," she said in a new affidavit.
Scheibe said he “never pointed a gun at or toward my face in a threatening manner."
The two now seem to be back together and went together to pick up their firearms. They were seen by SplashNewsOnline cameras in a video posted on TMZ.
