He will be summoned to appear in court at a later date, and if convicted, he could face a hefty fine of up to $10,000.

According to a spokesperson from the WA Police Force, aiming laser lights at aircrafts can result in temporary blindness for the pilot. This dangerous and reckless act not only puts the pilot and their crew in danger, but it also poses a threat to everyone onboard the aircraft. The spokesperson emphasized that laser lights not only illuminate the inside of the aircraft, but they can also cause temporary blindness for the pilot, which can have disastrous consequences.

The police also want to remind the public that this is a serious offence and anyone caught using laser lights to target aircrafts could face severe consequences. The safety of pilots and passengers should not be taken lightly, and the police will not hesitate to take action against anyone who endangers them. Let this serve as a reminder to all that safety should always be a top priority, and any reckless actions that put others at risk will not be tolerated.
