The crossbow is an uncommon source of fatal injury. In Los Angeles County, two crossbow homicides have occurred in the past 20 years. Following the second case, a crossbow was test-fired into a fresh pork thigh, resulting in distinctive wounds. Experimental studies also showed that the vanes of the bolt (arrow) may be a source of trace material found in the wound.
弩是一种较为罕见的致命伤害来源。在洛杉矶县,过去20年里发生了两起弩杀事件。在第二起案件之后,一把弩被试射进一块新鲜猪大腿,造成了独特的伤口。实验研究还表明,弩箭的箭羽可能是伤口中发现的微量物质来源。
