Ok, now the NG deployment is all making sense. No way local law enforcement could handle laser pointers.
OHSU says emergency flights will be diverted amid planned 'laser party' in South Portland
....A "laser party" for those frustrated with helicopters' nightly flights over the South Portland area can have dangerous consequences for patients, OHSU warned.
....Due to that planned event, OHSU said, several air ambulance vendors will not land at the hospital helipad Saturday night. Instead, their helicopters will land at other airports, and patients will then be transported to OHSU's hospital via ambulance, which could take 45-60 minutes
....."For most patients[,] that will be an acceptable delay. However, for some sensitive situations, such as unstable trauma patients, STEMIs and strokes, the delay could have real impacts," OHSU warned in an email.
