Laser at Plane Lands Two Women in Trouble | Wichita News

Late Tuesday night, a Nebraska State Patrol plane was targeted by a laser over Lincoln, leading to the arrest of two women who were also found with drugs. The 43-year-old received a ticket for attempted assault on an officer. Laser pointing at aircraft is a federal crime with up to five years in prison and $250,000 in fines — and it’s not just a ticket; it can blind pilots and endanger lives. Over 11,000 incidents were reported last year, and this year’s already surpassed 3,300.
