一名42岁的马戏团表演者在纽约Orange County Fair的弩箭表演中意外射中其丈夫的颈部[1]。受伤者Edwin Cuervo Rangel现年38岁，来自威斯康星州沃基肖，事件发生于周五晚间[1]。箭射中Cuervo Rangel颈部侧面的软组织，未伤及主要血管[1]。他随后被直升机送往医院，周六已出院，医生已移除箭头并进行了缝合[1]。
Circus Murcia的负责人Benjamin Jackson表示伤势并不严重，称"没有血液泄漏，箭入口处周围有一点血，就像穿耳洞一样"[1]。马戏团在事件发生当晚取消了演出，周六恢复演出但取消了弩箭表演项目[1]。马戏团声明强调安全是首要优先事项，并称此为孤立事件，公众无危险[1]。
A 42-year-old circus performer accidentally shot her husband in the neck with a crossbow arrow during a performance at the Orange County Fair in Middletown, New York on Friday evening [1]. Ana Daza Tavera, the shooter, and Edwin Cuervo Rangel, 38, who was struck, are married and perform together [1]. The arrow struck the side of Cuervo Rangel's neck in the soft tissue area without damaging major blood vessels [1].
Cuervo Rangel was transported to a hospital by helicopter and was discharged on Saturday after the arrow was removed and the wound was closed [1]. According to Benjamin Jackson, the director of Circus Murcia, the injury was minor in appearance, with Jackson stating: "No blood leaking out. There was a little around the hole where the arrow went in, kind of like getting your ear pierced" [1]. The circus cancelled performances on Friday night but resumed Saturday while discontinuing the crossbow act [1]. In a statement, the circus emphasized that safety is the top priority and characterized the incident as isolated, with no danger to the public [1].
