Summary
Updated 2026-07-20

Pierre Basile, also identified in some sources as Bertran de Gourdon and John Sabroz, was a Limousin boy famous for shooting King Richard I of England with a crossbow at the siege of Châlus-Chabrol on 25 March 1199. Richard, who had removed some of his chainmail, was not mortally wounded by Basile's bolt directly; however the wound resulted in gangrene, of which Richard later died.
