George Zimmerman surrendered to authorities in Florida on Sunday and was taken into custody at the Seminole County Jail, two days after a judge revoked his $150,000 bond and ordered him to turn himself in.
Judge Kenneth R. Lester Jr. said on Friday that Zimmerman and his family misled the court about their finances, and set a deadline of 2:30 p.m. Sunday for Zimmerman to surrender.
Zimmerman, looking "a little heavier" than he did after his April arrest, arrived at the jail less than an hour before the deadline, according to ABC News.

Mark O'Mara, Zimmerman's attorney, said earlier Sunday that he was coordinating with the Sanford (Fla.) Police Dept. to "ensure Mr. Zimmerman's security when he turns himself in."
Zimmerman, who is charged with second-degree murder in the Feb. 26 shooting death of Trayvon Martin, had been living in an undisclosed location since being released on bond in April. According to O'Mara, "there are significant threats" against the former neighborhood watchman's life.
