A man went to rescue his only son who had been jailed for petty theft.

When authorities refused a ransom to release him, the man decided to break his son out of the jail.

With a storm closing in, he waited until night before slipping into the jail and breaking his son out.

Sneaking out, a guard spotted them and went to cry out but as he did so a huge bolt of lightning crashed between them.

Taking his prized bow, the man silenced the guard, allowing them to escape unnoticed.

This is that same type of bow!
