A woman from Delta Junction, Alaska, has been handed three years of probation for using a powerful laser to interfere with a joint military operation, injuring three Canadian aircrew members.
A statement from the U.S. District Attorney’s office in Alaska says Canadian military aircrews were flying in two tactical helicopter squadrons on Feb. 11, 2024, as part of an operation with the United States when one of the pilots reported a laser had been pointed at the aircraft.
