A man was arrested on a federal criminal charge in Washington, D.C., after he allegedly aimed a red laser pointer at Marine One as it flew overhead carrying President Donald Trump.
Jacob Samuel Winkler has been charged with aiming the beam of a laser pointer at an aircraft — a felony that carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison, according to the Associated Press.
Secret Service Officer Diego Santiago was on patrol on Saturday near the White House, securing the presidential helicopter’s flight path, when he spotted Winkler, who was shirtless and talking to himself loudly, according to a criminal complaint obtained by Fox News Digital.
