The Federal Aviation Administration says two pilots were hospitalized with eye injuries Saturday when a person on the ground shone a green laser into the plane's cockpit while it was approaching the airport to land at the Albuquerque Sunport.
The FAA says the pilots managed to land the plane, an Airbus A300-600 being used by FedEx, safely, according to the Aviation Herald.
New Mexico State Police are handling the investigation.
The FBI and FAA saw 27 laser strikes in 2013 in Albuquerque, almost double the number from 2012.
