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 . The restriction of the airspace coincided with travel to the West Coast by President Barack Obama . The F-16s were scrambled from March Air Reserve Base in Riverside , California , and intercepted the errant Cessna 182 around 11:30 a.m. ( 2:30 p.m . ET ) , said NORAD . Accompanied by the F-16s , the Cessna 182 landed without incident , where it was met by local law enforcement , NORAD said . A law enforcement official said 10 kilograms of what appeared to be marijuana were found on the plane . Secret Service spokesman Max Milien said only that `` some type of narcotics '' was found . The Secret Service concluded that the pilot was `` of no protective interest to us , '' meaning the individual was not considered a threat , and was therefore turned over to the Long Beach Police Department . Immigration and Customs Enforcement Homeland Security Investigations , which helped question the pilot , said police were expected to refer the case to state prosecutors . The White House had no comment . CNN Rosalina Nieves contributed to this report story from Los Angeles .
