Um, yes they DID take the gun from Zimmerman. It's right there in the cop report. They took the gun and it's in evidence.
It's not clear if they kept the gun upon Zimmerman's release, only that the officer took it at the scene. I can't find anything official that states one way or the other if they kept it and for how long.
Like most police departments they kept the firearm pending an investigation.
Maybe, but that's not clear. There is no report released yet that indicates what happened to the gun after the officers left the scene. I certainly hope they did .. if not, that's just one more thing they have to answer to.
