A crossbow retailer provided the Police with 17 (IIRC) people who had bought a crossbow from them - Dunno if it was a routine follow up, but they visited the suspect who showed them a newly purchased 'bow (bought after the event) and said that the other 'bow had been sold to an unknown "adult" at the doorstep. He is also is alleged to have binned his mobile phone and sim for some reason (like you do)
