Car crashes into parked SUV in Biden's motorcade near Delaware campaign HQ

President Biden and first lady Jill Biden were unharmed after a car crashed into a U.S. Secret Service vehicle guarding his motorcade near his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday night, the White House said.

The big picture: It was not immediately clear what caused the crash that happened just after 8pm ET, but USSS agents quickly surrounded the car and pulled weapons on the driver, who held his hands up, according to a pool report.

Zoom in: The incident happened at the intersection across from the entrance of Biden's campaign headquarters after Jill Biden got into the first couple's vehicle, per the pool report that noted the president looked surprised as he stood near the vehicle.

Footage from the scene showed agents helping the president into the Bidens' vehicle after the incident.

USSS Special Agent Steve Kopek, an agency spokesperson, said in an emailed statement Sunday night there was "no protective interest associated with this event and the President's motorcade departed without incident."
