An air ambulance crew member has described how he feared for his sight after he was hit in the eye by a laser in the latest act of “senseless stupidity”.
Technical crew member Alex Clark was sitting next to the pilot in the Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA) as it was flying at 1500ft over Bradford, West Yorkshire, on Friday evening when the laser penetrated his night vision goggles and burned the cornea on his right eye.
