Perhaps "precedent" wasn't the correct word? It's been done before. Not often, but I recall the boarding and seizing of a DPRK shipment of weapons. Or maybe it is specific to the DPRK? Not sure. I just remember reading about it.

As another poster mentioned, there was also the Cuban Missile Crisis. Though the laws may have changed in the 60+ years since.

I think both actions were triggered by credible intel.
