ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Deputies have arrested a woman who shot fireworks at a sheriff's helicopter flying overhead. Marjorie Thompson, 44, was annoyed with the loud noise the helicopter was making over her house late Thursday night, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

The woman ran outside with a bottle rocket launcher and started shooting bottle rockets at the aircraft, Florida Today reported.

The helicopter was in the area searching for the suspect of a car theft, authorities said.

The helicopter's pilot, Mike Umbarger, said the craft's flight pattern was never in jeopardy. Authorities said they caught Thompson in the act of launching the second bottle rocket. She is facing a felony charge of shooting or throwing a deadly missile into an aircraft.
