MCPO + APD announce that 52-year-old Daniel Williams is wanted in connection with the shooting investigation in Allentown that took place earlier this afternoon.
Officials urge anyone who may see the suspect Williams to please dial 9-1-1 immediately.
Shining a laser at an aircraft can cause pilots within the cockpit to be blinded leading to tragic consequences, this is also a federal crime, please act responsibly! @FAANews
There is, understandably, a high degree of frustration surrounding the current situation regarding the drone activity throughout the area. There are investigations continuing into the activity both by public safety and by members of the public.
Since there is some difficulty in identifying what aircraft are in the sky it is absolutely imperative that under no circumstances that a laser/laserlight be directed at ANY aircraft in the sky, regardless of what it may look like.
The drone activity seen throughout the region is, at this juncture, not known to pose any risk to public safety according to officials. Members of the public are asked to utilize the non-emergency line of their local police department to report any potentially suspicious sighting
as 911 should be used only for emergency situations. @FBINewark and the @NJSP are also asking civilians to please report any information related to this matter directly to the dedicated tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-255-5324)
