UK: Two arrested in Maidenhead for aiming laser pen at police helicopter
Two males were arrested August 20 2013 for shining a laser pen at a police helicopter in Maidenhead, a town about 12 miles west-northwest of London Heathrow Airport. They were arrested on suspicion of endangering the safety of an aircraft; in addition, a laser pen was seized. A 17-year-old was bailed until September 10 while the other male arrested was released without charge.
A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said this was the first incident he had heard of in “a long time” in the area.
