“A man in the US state of Oregon has been arrested on charges of aiming a laser pointer at two commercial airliners, authorities have said. Stephen Francis Bukucs was arrested in Portland on Friday and is accused of aiming the laser at United Airlines and JetBlue aeroplanes on 13 October. Authorities say Mr Bukucs is the first adult to face prosecution for such charges in the state Oregon. He pleaded not guilty in a court appearance on Monday. The private security guard, 39, ‘knowingly aimed the beam of a laser pointer’ at the aircraft, according to court documents.”
