Justin Bieber's Plane Grounded in North Jersey

Troubled pop star's aircraft, registered to Parsippany-based company, searched for drugs at Teterboro Airport.

Justin Bieber's plane was detained Friday afternoon at Teterboro Airport after authorities suspected there were drugs onboard.

The troubled pop star was believed to be on the flight with his father and 10 others from Ontario to New Jersey for the Super Bowl, according to NorthJersey.com.

“When the doors to the plane were opened, there was smoke and strong odor of suspected marijuana,” a law enforcement source told NorthJersey.com.

However, narcotics were not found in any of the suitcases or on the plane, which is registered to Parsippany-based IC Group LLC, the article said.

This is the latest of a recent string of run-ins with authorities for the 19-year-old.

Bieber was arrested on Wednesday in Toronto for an alleged attack on a limo driver outside a nightclub on Dec. 30.

Bieber was also charged in Miami last month with drunken driving and drag racing and could face charges for an alleged egging incident that caused thousands of dollars worth of damage to a neighbor's home in California.

The Amazing Kreskin, a North Jersey mentalist, in an open letter last week offered to help the troubled pop star.

Kreskin has claimed that, “months ago I publicly predicted the scenario you are going through at the present time.”

To help the teen singer, Kreskin also offered to meet with him privately in order to reveal to Bieber how long his career will last if he continues with his current lifestyle and the major changes he needs to make.

“I will disclose a MAJOR [sic] change that you MUST [sic] make in order for any kind of rehab or therapy to succeed,” Kreskin wrote on his website.
