Cops identify 2 parks near Pearson where lasers imperil jets

Toronto police have named two parks in northwest Toronto where someone has been shooting laser beams at jetliners landing at Pearson airport. The dangerous game can blind pilots and cause disaster. Cops are reported to be on the ground at Lanyard Park and Beaumonde Heights Park Sunday night. The two small green areas are a few blocks apart east of Highway 27 and north of 401. Police issued an alert over TPS Operations Twitter service that laser pointers have been aimed at a number of planes landing and taking off at the airport.
