Suicide using multiple crossbow arrows.

K Opeskin1, M Burke.   

Abstract

We report the case of a 44-year-old man who committed suicide using multiple crossbow arrows. The first arrow that he fired went between the left eye and nose and passed into a frontal lobe of the brain with no exit wound. He fired a second arrow that entered the palate and went through the brain but did not exit the skull. To the best of our knowledge, no cases of suicide using multiple crossbow arrows have previously been reported.
