Alma 17:20

And as Ammon entered the land of Ishmael,

the Lamanites took him and bound him,

as was their custom to bind all the Nephites who fell into their hands,

and carry them before the king;

and thus it was left to the pleasure of the king to slay them,

or to retain them in captivity,

or to cast them into prison,

or to cast them out of his land,

according to his will and pleasure.

Alma 17:36

But Ammon stood forth and began to cast stones at them with his sling;

yea, with mighty power he did sling stones amongst them;

and thus he slew a certain number of them

insomuch that they began to be astonished at his power;

nevertheless they were angry because of the slain of their brethren,

and they were determined that he should fall;

therefore, seeing that they could not hit him with their stones,

they came forth with clubs to slay him.
