Cops' helicopter got too close ‐ so Georgia man shot it, feds say. He's going to prison
|
 [KYRN] A 56-year-old man in Georgia will spend more than a decade behind bars after he pleaded guilty to shooting at a police helicopter, federal prosecutors announced Thursday.
Terry Kielisch was sentenced to 15 years in prison and ordered to pay $54,960 in restitution to cover the repair costs on a Georgia State Patrol helicopter that was searching for fugitives when Kielisch aimed his rifle at it in 2019, prosecutors said in a news release.
Kielisch wasn’t a target in that search — but he reportedly told law enforcement "he fired at the helicopter because he didn’t like it flying near his home," the release says.
"When Terry Kielisch aimed and fired a high-powered rifle at a police helicopter, he callously endangered the lives of the officers aboard the aircraft and of any people on the ground," U.S. Attorney Bobby L. Christine said in the release. "The resulting sentence appropriately reflects the senselessness of this attack."
