    Good lord. How do you kill 3 people with a crossbow? It's about the slowest reloading weapon I can think of.

    It's gotta take 10-15 seconds to reload right?

    A crossbow has more than enough power to put a bolt through three people standing in a line.

    It's an awful situation.

    it had to be a tactical xbow. no normal hunting xbow could have done this. I bet it had a high capacity quiver.

    Canuck lives matter?
    In all seriousness, sound like domestic issue/crazy people.

    Also not to be "that guy" but I could easily shoot/reload/shoot my crossbow in less than 5 seconds if I had to. And I'm not Daryl Dixon.

    In a confined space like a garage, you would have to shoot one, knock the others out in order to have time to reload and shoot more.
