The Bieber’s Personal Jet Detained in NJ
Justin Bieber’s personal plane was held at an airport tonight after authorities suspected it was carrying marijuana, police sources said.
The aircraft had just arrived in New Jersey’s ahead of Sunday’s Super Bowl when authorities detected what was described as a strong odour of pot.
The plane, believed to be a twin-jet Raytheon Hawker 800, was ordered to be held at Teterboro Airport until drug-sniffing dogs could check it out.
A canine team sniffed the jet for pot as part of a U.S. Customs search.
Bieber had chartered the private jet to fly him, his father and friends to the game which sees the Seattle Seahawks take on the Denver Broncos.
Bieber had planned to fly in to New Jersey from his home town in Canada so he could join the hundreds of thousands of people who had descended on New York for the game.
3AM has contacted reps for the singer.
The search comes just days after police in Toronto decided to charge the 19-year-old Bieber with
assault on Wed.
TMZ has now reported the dispute was all over the volume of the radio in his limo.
Police were originally called to the incident on December 29 after the singer had been to a Toronto Maple Leafs ice hockey game.
A statement from Toronto police said Bieber allegedly struck the limousine driver on the back of the head several times during an altercation.
At the time police said they were investigating an assault allegation, but it was unclear whether the allegation was against Bieber himself or a member of his entourage.
He is due to appear in court on March 10.
Bieber is already facing a driving-under-the-influence case in Miami and remains under investigation for vandalism in Los Angeles.
