Police believe a woman was injured by a ball bearing at a castle in Wiltshire.
The victim was walking her dog close to Ludgershall Castle at around 4.30pm on Friday (5 November), when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her leg.
Inspecting the area, she found a small circular mark where an object had penetrated through her clothing.
Officers investigating the incident believe it could have been caused by a ball bearing-type object – possibly fired from a gun or catapult.

They continued: “It is believed this was caused by a pellet or ball bearing of some kind.
