Article 27

No person shall be found guilty where he engages in conduct in order to avoid, death or immediate serious bodily injury to himself or to another person or damage to property, where such injury or damage:

substantially outweighs the injury or damage resulting from the conduct; and

could not have been avoided by using other means that would have resulted in less injury or damage.

Sub-Article (1) does not apply where the person intentionally kills or inflicts serious bodily injury on another person.
