TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Crossbow injuries JO - Journal of forensic sciences A1 - Rogers, Christopher A1 - Dowell, S. A1 - Choi, J. H. A1 - Sathyavagiswaran, Lakshmanan SP - 886 EP - 890 VL - 35 IS - 4 N2 - 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.
