A man has been arrested after a laser was shone at a police helicopter which was responding to a call in Birmingham.

West Midlands Police said the helicopter was flying over Benmore Avenue in Edgbaston at about 22:30 BST on Tuesday when a laser torch was shone at it from a parked vehicle.

A 25-year-old from Nechells was arrested on suspicion of endangering an aircraft after officers on the ground traced him.

He remains in police custody.

What we need now, is a judge to pass a very long time locked up.
