The Secret Service is in contact with French officials regarding this week's mysterious drone incidents in Paris, a law enforcement official tells CNN.

For at least the last two days, unmanned aerial vehicles have been spotted flying over high profile sites in Paris, including the Eiffel Tower and the U.S. Embassy in France, French officials said. It is unclear, authorities have said, who is flying the aircraft.

Meanwhile, the Secret Service will be busy over the coming days and weeks conducting readiness drills to better prepare officers for drone incidents around the White House.
