Portland authorities quietly indicted an alleged rioter yesterday, accusing him of pointing a high-powered laser capable of burning a hole through cardboard at a police sergeant’s eyes.

The indictment comes two months after an unidentified Antifa member blinded three federal officers sent to Portland at President Trump’s behest in July with a similar device.

The Daily Caller’s Jake Dima has more:

Bryan Kelley, 36, is accused of injuring the cop during a riot in late August, according to a press release from the Multnomah District Attorney’s Office. The 36-year-old faces second degree assault, unlawful use of a weapon and two counts of unlawfully utilizing a laser pointer, the release detailed.

The Portland Police Bureau (PPB) released a video of the laser allegedly used by Kelley, which shows the bright purple beam burning a hole in what appears to be a thin piece of cardboard.

WATCH: 

The device is capable of burning holes in paper products and igniting dry material, a joint investigation revealed, according to the DA’s press release.

The PPB sergeant allegedly injured by Kelley saw the man shine the beam into the eyes of multiple officers, while several rioters vandalized a building during the August unrest, the DA’s office wrote.

    1. NO BAIL OUT from some evil rich person. To HELL with virus, keep them locked up! They have to taught a rough lesson!

  1. there is no need for a laser pointer that strong and should not be made and sold I would be checking him and that laser pointer out for other crimes that have been done elsewhere and where pointer came from

  2. PD should acess same Laser alone to make=.
    No games, make fair nationwide
    & use ADS: Active Denial System near Fed properties

  3. Why is this a second degree assault? Clearly this was premeditated intent to cause permanent injury to multiple police officers. Perp should get years in prison for this.

  4. “Quietly?”
    They shoulda made a big public spectacle out of busting this punk and warned his cronies that others would follow.

  5. I hope this idiot manages to dismember himself with his laser. He shouldn’t be reproducing. His attempt to permanently blind the officers is unforgivable.

  6. Time to revoke the charade known as ” bail reform.” There’s no room on the streets for these thugs. These low life thugs and bail boasting, the like of a ” US VP” candidate no “VP” have no business on the streets recommitting crimes as we have seen, do not deserve freedom before trial, PERIOD!
