familia ya 17 mwenye umri wa miaka Trayvon Martin inataka majibu baada ya polisi bado kutolewa 911 tapes or make an arrest nearly one month after the unarmed African-American teenager was shot and killed by a white neighborhood watch captain in a gated Florida community.

Trayvon Martin was visiting his father, Tracy, who lives in a gated community in the Orlando suburb of Sanford, during NBA All Star Weekend.

Zimmerman, a 26-year-old captain of the neighborhood watch, called the police to report a suspicious person in the area.
