Abstract：
:In three separate shooting incidents involving multiple gunshots, two FMJ bullets and one bullet fragment found at the scene (one from each case) were investigated for the presence of biological material from the victim after perforation. The surface of the missiles, which did not show obvious tissue traces when examined under a macroscope, was swabbed. PCR typing of up to five STR loci was performed on the small amounts of DNA extracted, which were seen below the detection limit of the slot blot quantification in one case. Nevertheless, individualisation of cellular material from the perforating projectiles was successful in each of the three cases presented. Consequently, identification of the victim wounded by a perforating bullet can reliably be achieved if contamination or removal of evidentiary material by improper handling is prevented. This technique is especially useful in cases where more than one person has fired a gun because the bullet carrying DNA can be linked to the firearm by investigation with a comparison microscope. As a by-product of this investigation, a variant allele 14 (14+4) at the VWA locus was detected.
