Man gets 15 months in federal prison for aiming laser pointer at a CHP helicopter | L.A. NOW | Los Angeles Times
Anyone see this item? It came up in my morning RSS feeds. Some punk aimed a laser at a police helicopter assisting a burglary investigation. I am not sure what made the pilot bug out (fear that the laser was a firearm sight, disorientation, or an understanding of the danger), but I'm glad they weren't hurt, hope the investigation wasn't compromised, and am very happy they caught the perpetrator.
