Default OUCH!!

Teenager Shot In Head With Arrow


I'm sure there is much more to this story. The boy was playing in the woods with his older brother. On local radio they make it sound like the other kid shot the arrow, I'm sure more details will be out by the evening news.

Thats crazy!

I don't see how it didn't do much damage if it landed between the bridge of the nose and his eye.

He is very lucky.

That kid is lucky he didn't loose his eye as for the shooter , I like to know what he was shooting at that caused the arrow to deflect and bounch off a tree.
It seems to me that the hunter had to know those kids where around or heard them playing.

Yup, just what the Anti's need to add more fuel to their anti-bowhunting fire.
Parents should watch the bows and arrows in addition to the handguns and rifles.

The article did not say these kids were hunting or a hunter shot them. Since the seasons are closed in that county and the reports on the radio suggested it,I'm pretty sure the kids were shooting the bow at stuff when the accident happened.
