ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - An Orlando man is accused of firing shots
at a law enforcement helicopter.

A report from the Orange County Sheriff's Office says emergency
dispatchers were responding to a call Sunday of a shooting.

Deputies in a helicopter and K-9 units went to check it out when at
least one shot was fired at the helicopter.

Authorities arrested 26-year-old Jason McGuire on a charge of
aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, attempted murder
of a law enforcement officer and shooting at an occupied aircraft.

He's being held in jail.

No bond has been set. Jail records did not list an attorney for him.

Authorities say no one was injured in the shooting.
