A homeless man and a 16-year-old girl were charged with shooting two fellow transients with a crossbow, killing one and injuring the other, prosecutors said Thursday.
Phoenix Triton King, 20, faces murder and attempted charges and the girl, whose name was not released because she's a minor, faces an additional charge of assault with a deadly weapon, Humboldt County Deputy District Attorney Elan Firpo said.
Firpo said evidence indicates King fired a single arrow at 44-year-old James John James' face on Sunday, killing the man.
The second victim, Matthew Blaine Lewis, 41, suffered arrow wounds to the head, hip and leg.
