First rule of any crossbow fight--have a crossbow.

Maybe the kid should have used these rocks. He might have been able to take out the passenger first and avoid the X-bow bolt.
I guess justice has been served.

In our state, the crossbow shooter and the driver would both be arrested. A crossbow is a dangerous weapon and it's a felony to have access to one in a vehicle. I also have strong doubts that shooting a person for throwing a rock is grounds for a potentially lethal retaliation. Notice I said "retaliation" and not self defense. Either the rock thrower was seen before the rock was tossed and they could have stopped and gone around or if after tossing the threat was past and continuing to drive was a far better choice.

A little more detail on the story....
Link:
Quote:
A San Diego boy has been taken to hospital after a passing driver fired an arrow into his stomach. The teen is believed to have been throwing rocks at passing cars in the Linda Vista neighbourhood with a friend when they got into a fight with another group of teens who were driving a Toyota RAV4. The group stopped driving and someone inside the car fired an arrow from a crossbow into his stomach. The boy was taken to hospital and is expected to survive. The four-wheel drive fled the scene.
