A Virgin Atlantic flight heading to New York was turned back Sunday after one of the pilots was effected by a "laser beam incident," the airline said.
When the flight reached the west coast of Ireland, a crew member reported to Irish air traffic controllers there was a "medical issue with one of the pilots after a laser incident after take-off."
London's Metropolitan Police tweeted: "Aircraft forced to return to Heathrow after being hit by a laser strike... #laserstrike CAD4."
