In the scenario in which Oxley throws a rock intending to hit Pieter but misses and hits Ricardo who sustains an injury, Ricardo can most likely recover the cost of his injury from Oxley in a suit based on the tort theory of​ conversion.

the conversion is a civil wrong (tort) in which one converts another's property to his/her own use and exposes you to liability for damages in a civil lawsuit.
