New York State Police have charged a Genesee County man with aiming a laser at an aircraft after he allegedly aimed the beam at a military helicopter.
Troopers arrested Kevin Peitrzykowski of Stafford after the incident on Friday night. Troopers responded first to the Bergen area after being alerted by air traffic controllers at the Rochester Airport. After interviewing multiple witnesses, troopers located Pietryzkowski on Clinton Street Road in Stafford and arrested him. He was released on his own recognizance. He’s due in Stafford Court next month.
