Not a drone incident but equally as stupid. Would not be surprised to see this happen with a multirotor some day though, we've already seen one incident like this in NY. In this case the kid probably got some dog bites, and was arrested. I thought this charge was appropriate, and wonder if we have something similar on the books (or could be soon);
Unlawfully Engage in Behavior that Endangers an Aircraft - Aeronautics Act
This was in Canada. That charges seems generic in nature and can fit many different things. The other charge was similar to our "reckless endangerment" charges that can fit a variety of scenarios.
Porcia: Yes, the Laser problem is a whole different and uncontrolled mega problem for pilots. A friend of mine is an airline pilot and he got hit with a laser that put him out of work for about 2 weeks. Fortunately he regained his eyesight and could return to work.
Just more dumb idiots in my opinion.
