He had hung up the phone after giving 911 his location, he just didn't have one of the street names, is my understanding. 911 confirmed they were sending police and he should stop following.
According to George, he got out of the truck to go look for a street sign after the 911 call ended. If that's true, maybe he planned to call them back thinking it could speed things up if he gave them the exact location?
Others believe that George got out of the truck to follow Trayvon on foot after being advised against that by 911 dispatch.
Weird thing about the 911 calls in this case. George says he was reaching for his phone (some believe it was probably his gun) to call 911 again when Trayvon punched him. After he shot Trayvon, a man rushed to the scene and told George that he was going to call 911. George told him it wasn't necessary because he had already called 911, so it seems George was confident that the location he'd given 911 initially was specific enough after all. I didn't see anything in his statement to indicate that he called 911 a second time.
This is all to the best of my understanding.
