Boy arrested for pointing laser light at helicopter
While this could be a very dangerous situation, my hope is that this dumb 13 year old was arrested to scare the be-Jesus outta him and that they’ll drop the charges (assuming he doesn’t already have a record).
He’s dumb. He’s a kid. He needs some sense knocked into him, not prison time, in my opinion.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested Monday night on suspicion of reckless endangerment after he allegedly pointed a green laser at a Phoenix Police Department helicopter, police said.
The helicopter was struck with the laser around 6:30 p.m., police said.
“As soon as I saw the light, I tried to turn my eyes away,” said Phoenix police Officer Bruce Bates, who had been flying the helicopter Monday night.
