L@ser attack at NCE

I just landed at NCE, on the VOR A 04R approach, when during the turn towards final (at 3 DME CGS) we were attacked by green l@ser from Cap Antibe, off our left side. I was hit directly into my eyes while flying the visual segment of the rather unusual approach. I wasn't blinded, but did ask for the police to meet us upon arrival. Twice.
After getting to the gate and shutting down, I was told it would take quite a lot of time for the police to show up, as they had to do with a liquid spillage.
Where I am from, that's the firemen's show.
Also, where I am from, they have more then 2 policemen working an international airport. They actually do care about l@serattacks, even at eleven at night. They send out a helicopter immediatly. At least they take a statement. But I guess we were just a nuisance, so late at night.

Well, that way we won't be able to stop this crap.
I'll try again tomorrow to file a report.
