Man attacks neighbor with crossbow

Nebraska resident Carlos Lupercio has been sentenced to 2-4 years in prison after firing a crossbow at a neighbor following an argument between the two men. Why, you might ask? Lupercio insisted his neighbor’s dog was a labrador, while the neighbor said it was a pit bull. After the disagreement Lupercio went home, only to return a few minutes later with a crossbow. The shot just missed his neighbor, according to reports. Police say alcohol was likely involved in the incident.

Question: Even though he could have killed the guy, am I the only one who finds it amusing that crossbows are apparently still in use? Perhaps Lupercio was studying the consequences of Higgs Exication (http://www.xkcd.com/564/).
