Man charged with shining laser at plane
From NEWS.COM.AU:
Quote:
A man has been arrested after allegedly shining a laser into the cockpit of a plane flying over Brisbane's northside.
Police said the pilot of a light aircraft reported a green light shining into his plane's cockpit as he flew over the suburb of Ashgrove just before 6pm (AEST) on Thursday.
The plane was not a commercial flight and was carrying no passengers.
Inquiries led officers to an Ashgrove residence where a laser was seized, police said.
A 20-year-old man has been charged with endangering the safe use of a vehicle by directing a beam of light from a laser.
He has also been charged with assault.
He will face Brisbane Magistrates Court in September at a date to be advised.
