I had one pointed at me about 6 months ago coming into land in EMA at night, although I did not get hit direct as I noticed the beam aiming towards me it was enough to distract me at a very critical phase of flight turning final at around 2200ft!
reported it to tower to pass on to local police and thats the last I heard of it, hopefully if there are repeat actions like this a net is put out to catch them and throw the book at them for been beyond stupid.
