A car crashed into a parked pickup truck that was part of President Biden’s motorcade near his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday night.
The sedan crashed into a U.S. Secret Service vehicle being used to close intersections as a visibly dazed President Biden walked from the campaign office to his waiting armored SUV.

The sedan then attempted to continue toward a closed intersection, before Secret Service personnel surrounded the vehicle with weapons drawn and instructed the driver to put his hands up.

Biden was led to his waiting vehicle, where his wife was already seated, before being quickly driven back to his home. Neither the president nor the first lady were injured.
