Many instances of green lasers pointed at aircraft in YPPH and YMML. As recently as this week.
I have sent a PM to Robbo to that effect- I got 'zapped' by a green laser on approach to RWY27 into Melbourne late last year.
I think about 8 miles out?
The tower took it seriously and sent a guy around in a car to the plane to get more details. I drew a rought map of the area I saw, etc.
If that's the same spot, they obviously haven't caught the person yet.
