OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have questioned an Omaha man who is suspected of flashing a laser pointer at planes and helicopters.

The most recent incident occurred Tuesday night when a police helicopter was targeted. Authorities say he also may have aimed the pointer at passenger planes flying in and out of Omaha’s Eppley Airfield.

The man has not been arrested, so authorities aren’t releasing his name. The laser pointer has been confiscated.

Experts say a laser beam could harm a pilot’s night vision or cause blindness.

The Federal Aviation Administration has announced that it will pursue civil penalties on those who point lasers into the cockpits of aircraft.
