I then saw something out of the corner of my eye coming from over my right shoulder… I looked right and got hit square with a bright green laser. It was very brief, but obviously I have concerns. We'll see what my next eye test uncovers.

The source appeared to come from E/NE - roughly a 060 course just outside of the tall buildings of downtown proper. I'm assuming it is a telescope mounted system as it seemed pretty accurate in hitting us more than one in the cockpit.

It would be nice to see these bozos caught.

Had a few military guys in the back come up after the flight and say they were hit several times as well in the cabin. I gave their exact location and police were dispatched. Hopefully they catch them. I'm not liking this new fad.
