Archer who shot a spectator in the abdomen charged – Video

At a performance held in August last year as part of the Esztergom Historical Days, one of the equestrian archers acted with insufficient care and attention when shooting, starting the shot farther than justified.

According to hvg.hu, because of this, the arrow did not drill into the targeted straw bale, but snapped at its edge, reoriented on the ground, and drilled into the abdominal wall of the victim. The spectator suffered an injury that healed beyond eight days, was operated on on August 20, and his recovery took four weeks.
