He struck it in the Ḥill, but the hunted animal moved towards the Haram and died there. I asked if he would be liable for a penalty. Imam (as) replied: "There is no penalty upon him. The example of this is like a person who sets a trap in the Ḥill, near the boundary of the Haram, and an animal falls into the trap and struggles until it enters the Haram and dies there.
