## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

RECEIVED AT REPORT THAT BOTH POLICE DEPARTMENT PILOTS RECEIVED INJURIES FROM A LASER EVENT.  THIS OCCURED WHILE ON PATROL AND BOTH PILOTS REQUIRED MEDICAL TERATMENT.  A SUSPECT WAS ARRESTED BY THE PHILADELPHIA POLICE.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
