Fox News
A Southern California YouTube star is facing federal charges for a video he directed in which a helicopter shot fireworks at a Lamborghini.
The chopper was flying near the ground and without the necessary permits, prosecutors said. In the video, Choi pressed a "fire missiles" button while the women shot at the sports car, prosecutors said Thursday. Louis Casiano is a reporter for Fox News Digital.

"After shooting what appears to be a live-action version of a fictionalized video game scene, the video transitions to a behind-the-scenes look at how Choi shot the first third of the video. During this portion of the video, Choi allegedly makes various references to himself coordinating the shoot," the Justice Department said in a news release.
