Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Trespass to land occurs when a person intentionally enters onto the land of another without permission or causes an object or substance to enter onto the land of another. Shooting a bullet across someone else's property without permission would most likely be considered a trespass to land even if the shooter did not step onto the property themselves.
