Phoenix Police have arrested a suspect who allegedly pointed a green laser at aircraft landing at Deer Valley Airport.

Police got the call Wednesday night from two pilots who said they were hit by the laser.

A Phoenix Police helicopter approached the airport and was also hit by a laser.

They tracked the suspect, 26-year-old Scott Hines who was at his apartment in a complex on 19th Avenue.

Ground units arrived and saw Hines pointing a laser at the helicopter flying overhead.

Hines was arrested and booked into jail on four counts of endangerment.
