FISHERSVILLE, Va. (AP) — Authorities say a Virginia man is accused of killing another man with a crossbow.

Local news reports say the Augusta County Sheriff's Office has arrested 26-year-old Jeffrey A. Craun Jr. on a murder charge in connection with the death of 26-year-old Zachary A. Porter of Staunton.

Sheriff Donald Smith told the outlets that deputies found Porter's body Sunday morning in the driveway of a home and determined that he had died from injuries caused by a crossbow. Authorities haven't released any further details.

The sheriff's office said Craun, a Fishersville resident, is being held without bond at a regional jail. It's unclear if he has an attorney.
