Drone Buzzes President Barack Obama's Motorcade in Hawaii
• http://www.nbcnews.comA recreational drone got a little too close to President Barack Obama for the Secret Service's comfort on Monday.
Obama — who is in Hawaii with his family — had wrapped up a golf outing and was heading back to his vacation home when a drone briefly flew alongside his motorcade.
The Secret Service quickly intervened and said the pilot of the small, quadcopter-style drone was "completely unaware" that Obama's motorcade would be traveling through the area on Oahu.
The man "immediately complied with law enforcement requests to cease and desist," the statement added. No charges were filed and the motorcade did not stop or slow down because of the incident.
