Police have arrested a boy in south Devon after a laser was shone at the force helicopter

It was attending a burglary when three separate laser beams were directed at it.

The laser pen was recovered, and the boy has been bailed until later this month.

This incident follows the recent warning from police that anyone shining lasers at aircraft will be prosecuted under new laws
