What you need to show is that he continued following after he conceded with dispatch. And then you will need to prove that Zim was not attacked while returning to his car, and beaten while Zimmerman called for help, as witnesses testified.
That would be the point in the issue, Hoovie. The ones that are trying to hang Zimmerman, the ball is in their court. I don't have a problem changing my view of the altercation, but I need to have proof to do that. We don't, as yet, have that. It's just speculation. We do, however, have a police report.

Out of curiosity, if this confrontation occurred any significant distance from the truck, would that change your view of the altercation?

Yes it could. If the time lapse could be determined properly and you could tell how far they ran in those seconds etc. it could (and will I presume) make a difference.

No. Whoever threw the first punch is the aggressor.

True. But the timeline will be an important part of the story's veracity or weakness.

I disagree.

Harrassment doesn't necesitate physical contact.
