Helicopter laser attack: man charged
Police have charged a man after a laser attack on a police helicopter in the northwest of Sydney, late on Wednesday that the laws were passed against the laser pointer in a public place without reasonable explanation by the NSW Parliament.
The helicopter was flying at 500 feet above the Bella Vista about 6:00, when the crew were targeted by a green laser beam. The alleged attack "distracted and confused," the team, but nobody was injured, police said.
The team discovered the source of the green laser pointer pen carriers was the courtyard of a house in Eastbourne Way, Bella Vista.
After landing the helicopter in the area who contacted police, who arrested a man for 19 years and seized a green laser.
The man was charged with interfering with a crew member on board the aircraft. He obtained bail and Hornsby Local Court on July 22 to face.
A spokesman said police in Castle Hill The helicopter was on a training flight, but could not say how many crew members.
The Police Minister, David Campbell, said the attack was "cowardly ... and can result in disastrous consequences."
The new laws do not apply to the recent incident, the law has been gazetted and is not yet in place for weeks, said a spokesman for Campbell.
Under the laws, all laser pointers in public without reasonable explanation will be prohibited, with penalties ranging up to two years in prison.
Possession of class three four laser pointers - or high-power laser with a milliwatt - would be granted if the prohibited weapons law, the maximum penalty of 14 years in prison.
Police could not say what kind of laser pointer, Wednesday But Ken Baldwin, a laser expert at Australian National University, said it was even used in "low-quality lasers," set in Australia, enough to be a pilot 500 meters into the air to divert attention "Potentially, a flash of laser light by a laser beam of low quality can be distracting enough to think into this sort of distance for the driver". Oh, what was the reason that "can only be diverted," said Baldwin.
