The available literature reports only rare cases of injuries inflicted by the speargun shots. The last publication of this sort of which we are aware dates back to 1960. This article describes an example from the expert practice concerning the accident involving a wound caused by the speargun shot to a member of an amateur fishing party. The authors examined the weapon of injury (a 'Zelinka' speargun), the harpoon, its head, and fragments of the skin with the traces of the punctured wound obtained from the corpse of the victim. The investigative experiment included the underwater shooting from different distances with the use of a pork carcass as the target. The results of the comparative studies gave evidence of the possibility of formation of the wounds caused by exactly that harpoon, its head and cord which served as the weapons of the wound experienced by the victim. Moreover, the distance and the direction of the shot as well as a number of important concomitant circumstances of the accident were determined.
现有文献仅报道了极少数由鱼枪射击造成的伤害案例。我们所知的此类最新出版物可追溯到1960年。本文描述了一个来自专家实践的案例，涉及一名业余钓鱼者被鱼枪射中受伤的事故。作者检查了致伤武器（一支“泽林卡”鱼枪）、鱼叉、其头部以及从受害者尸体上获取的带有刺伤痕迹的皮肤碎片。调查实验包括以猪胴体为目标在不同距离进行水下射击。比较研究结果证明，正是该鱼叉、其头部和绳索有可能造成受害者所受的那种伤口。此外，还确定了射击的距离和方向以及事故的一些重要伴随情况。
