Prosecutor in Trayvon Martin shooting case decides against grand jury

A prosecutor in the case of the Trayvon Martin shooting announced she would not be holding a hearing to decide if the man who shot Martin should be tried.

According to BBC, the prosecutor, named Angela Corey, could either file charges or drop the case.

George Zimmerman, who fatally shot 17-year-old Martin in February, claims it was self-defense.

According to BBC, police haven’t arrested Zimmerman because they have no reason to believe he’s lying. Martin was unarmed.

The case remains under investigation.
