"hit me here, hit me here," this man shouted at soldiers. then shots rang out. three were killed. hundreds of thousands of morsi's furious supporters turned out across egypt today. >> we elected him and we want him back. morsi is still my president, morsi is still my president. >> this wire that separates hundreds of armed soldiers from these thousands of morsi supporters. the clerics are trying to keep them calm. things could change very quickly. the spiritual head of the muslim brotherhood, morsi's party, told supporters to be willing to sacrifice themselves for morsi. >> people are not going to go. they are surrounding the republican guard's headquarters until the president is handed over to them, and they will take the president back into the presidential palace. >> reporter: neither side is showing signs of backing down and that could have ripple effects well beyond egypt. some two million barrels of oil pass through the suez canal every day. and the violence there has driven up prices 7% this week, which could soon be felt at the pump. >> a key american allee lie and soon to be felt at the pump as you point out. alex, thank you. meantime back here at home tonight and to what could a pivotal day in the trial of neighborhood watchman george zimmerman, accused of murdering trayvon martin. martin's mother taking the stand, saying the voice screaming for help was her son. the prosecution resting its case and then right afterwards, the defense demanding an acquittal. what did the judge do?

>> that's what it looked like. >> reporter: the lead investigator called by the prosecution saying he believed zimmerman's inconsistencies were minimal. >> is there anything else in this case where you got the insight he might be a pathological liar? >> no. >> reporter: and the medical examiner whose testimony today contradicted earlier statements he'd made about the case. after the prosecution wrapped, the defense said the case is so weak, they demanded the judge throw it out. >> what is before the court is an enormous amount of information that my client acted in necessary self-defense. >> reporter: the defense says they could wrap their case by the middle of next week. the big question, will zimmerman take the stand?
