Cops search for Disney fan who aimed laser pointer at NYPD helicopter

Cops are looking for an apparent Disney fan who aimed a laser pointer at an NYPD helicopter flying overhead in Lower Manhattan over the weekend, authorities said.

The suspect — carrying a backpack that appears to depict the characters Elsa and Anna from the “Frozen” films — hid behind a tree as he intentionally beamed the red laser at the helicopter overhead on Battery Place near Second Place around 7:15 p.m. Saturday, cops said late Tuesday.

Meanwhile, the NYPD Aviation Unit’s camera was rolling, catching him in the act.

Cops say his actions created “substantial risk to the occupants” of the helicopter.

The man, also shown sporting a respirator and goggles, remained at large Wednesday morning.

Cops say he was with other people at the time, but he was the only one to use the laser pointer.

He’s shown walking toward a group of cyclists toward the end of the clip.

It’s unclear whether the group was involved in any protests at the time.
