The pilot had to abort the planned landing.When law enforcement arrived at Brian Keith Kapileo Nepaial's home, they found meth and evidence of drug trafficking. He's been charged for that, too. He is now the third person in the Portland area federally charged for using a laser to try to crash a federal aircraft. pic.twitter.com/qyTprLNw2U— Andy Ngo (@MrAndyNgo) October 17, 2025
