Los Angeles (CNN) — If you’re planning to transport marijuana in a private plane, you may want to check the president’s schedule before taking off.
That was the apparent lesson Thursday when two fighter jets under the direction of the the North American Aerospace Defense Command intercepted a general aviation plane that had flown Thursday into temporarily restricted air space over Los Angeles, NORAD said.
A law enforcement official said 10 kilograms of what appeared to be marijuana were found on the plane.
