They caught some idiot in England recently, decided to point his green laser at a police helicopter! The equipment on board pinpointed not just the house but the individual having a beer in his back garden! A few minutes later the car patrol was knocking on his door and arresting him!
Possibly a couple of years ago now but two idiots in the UK got six months each custodial for pointing a laser at an aircraft. Think it was PPRuNe's own lawyer/judge who sent them down too!
