Vehicle Collides with Stationed SUV in President Biden’s Convoy Near Delaware Campaign Base

On Sunday evening, a vehicle collided with a stationed SUV assigned to secure President Joe Biden’s convoy outside his campaign headquarters. President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden, who were present at the time, remained safe.

The incident occurred as President Biden was exiting his campaign office to board his armored SUV. A sedan impacted a U.S. Secret Service vehicle positioned to block intersections in preparation for the president’s exit. Following the collision, the sedan attempted to breach a barricaded intersection but was promptly intercepted by armed Secret Service agents, who demanded the driver to surrender.

Observing the disturbance, President Biden momentarily halted and turned towards the noise, displaying a look of surprise. He was quickly guided to his vehicle, where the First Lady was already waiting, and they were rapidly transported back to their residence. This event did not alter the President’s scheduled activities.

Steve Kopek, a spokesperson for the U.S. Secret Service, confirmed that the president’s convoy left the scene smoothly. The local Wilmington police took over the investigation of the crash, indicating that the incident was not perceived as a significant threat to the president’s safety.
