Man Arrested for Laser Attacks on Helicopters
Description
A man in Johnston County has been arrested for allegedly shining lasers at Duke Life Flight helicopters over several April nights, prompting FAA intervention and a video-led investigation that traced the beams to his home. Despite denying involvement and becoming combative during questioning, evidence—including a laser charging station found in his trash—led to his arrest on multiple charges, including targeting aircraft with a laser. With at least 18 laser incidents reported at RDU this year and national safety concerns still high, Urtso, now out on bond, is barred from possessing any laser devices while his case continues.
