A car slammed into a parked SUV that was shielding President Joe Biden’s motorcade while the president and first lady Jill Biden were exiting his campaign headquarters in Delaware on Sunday night.
Neither the president nor the first lady was injured.
The security breach happened just after 8 p.m. when Biden and the first lady were leaving the Biden-Harris 2024 headquarters in Wilmington.

Reporters traveling with the Bidens said the first lady had just said “happy holidays” to reporters and gotten into a presidential vehicle. Moments after the president responded to a question from reporters, a silver copper sedan with Delaware plates hit an SUV that appeared to be guarding the president’s motorcade.
Reporters heard a loud bang and saw Biden standing outside his vehicle with a surprised expression on his face.

No other details were immediately available.
