A car crashed into President Joe Biden‘s motorcade on Sunday evening as he and first lady Jill Biden were exiting the Biden-Harris 2024 headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware.
The first lady had already entered the vehicle the pair would be traveling in, and the president had just responded to a question, when a silver copper sedan with Delaware plates hit a motorcade vehicle, according to the White House press pool.

The vehicle that was hit seemed to be a motorcade SUV that was shielding the motorcade at an intersection across from the entrance to the campaign headquarters, according to the White House press pool.
The crash reportedly made a loud bang and left the president with a surprised look on his face.
