If this circumstance happened to me, I would be in fear for my safety and life.  I'm pretty sure you would be to.

Why would you be following a suspicious looking individual in the dark when you were clearly instructed not to do so and cops are on their way? And then out of the blue be blindsided by an attack and afraid for your life when a conflict takes place?

I wouldn't, but it isn't a crime to follow someone, and it isn't a crime to continue to do so after the dispatcher told you not to.  The only part that was relevant to the case is when Zimmerman and Martin engadged each other.
