ERMA – A plane registered to a Court House man breached a no-fly zone around President Biden’s Rehoboth Beach area residence June 4.
The man accidentally navigated into the restricted air space, leading the Secret Service to evacuate the President from his Delaware residence.
Two F-15 fighter jets and an MH-65 helicopter intercepted the single-engine Cessna and escorted it back to Cape May Airport, where it landed at 1:11 p.m., according to CBS News.
James Salmon, spokesperson for the Delaware River Bay Authority (DRBA) said that DRBA Police canine unit responded, searching the plane for explosives. Authorities found none.
Salmon also confirmed that Lower Township Police detained the man. He was subsequently transferred to the Secret Service to be interviewed.
A statement from the Secret Service indicated that they believed the ordeal to be an accident.
“Preliminary investigation reveals the pilot was not on the proper radio channel, was not following the NOTAMS (Notice to Airmen) that had been filed and was not following published flight guidance,” the statement read.
