Heard on the radio yesterday about a police helicopter here (Ingolstadt) searching in for a missing child, being forced to land after pilot was affected by a laser beam in his eyes, culprit was a 13 year old child. Heard the chopper, but thought it was just a police night training excercise.....I live a short distance from the Danube, by a park, sometimes used by training flights.
No mention of the missing child being found. But this surely is a case of putting lives in danger.
