LINK (News story)
quote:

The neighbor heard a commotion and the victim, who was a friend, shouting for help just after noon, authorities said.

quote:

He stood at the bottom of a stairwell and fired up at a dog on the landing, she said. The bolt struck the dog with a glancing blow, went through the door and hit the man in the room where he was trying to barricade himself, Harrington said.

quote:

The dogs showed aggression toward responding police officers, who shot and killed both. Officers fired five rounds at the dogs, an investigation found.

I’ll be damned. It was in Massachusetts. I’d have put money on Florida.

Impressive power of a crossbow to go through a door like that. Pretty awesome.

What an idiot. Everyone knows when a pit attacks you grab a knife and cut it’s throat. That’s why when I’m walking my dog I carry a 110 Buck.

Hollow core door would not be a problem for a cross bow. Solid core would be a bit more impressive but likely doable still.

We had a guy in Central Florida a few years back who took his buddy bow hunting and shot him in the arse with a broadhead. According to the Newspaper article his buddy was screwing his wife and he didn't want to kill him just teach him a lesson.....lesson learned I assume.
