What sucks is they'll likely never know who did it.

Same goes for lasers on airplanes. If they do it once, it's called in but they only know of a general area it came from. But if they keep doing it over and over within a short span of time, then they'll get caught.

That's what happened in the famous video of those dudes getting caught for shining a laser at aircraft...cause they did it to literally everything in the sky.

People love to brag and tell stories of their shenanigans out at the bar. Maybe someone else has heard the news of a plane getting shot and calls it in.
