It was not immediately clear why the sedan smashed into an SUV that was part of the motorcade. The driver was surrounded by agents who had their guns drawn.

A sedan smacked into a Secret Service vehicle that was part of President Joe Biden’s motorcade in Delaware on Sunday night.

Following the crash, U.S. Secret Service agents whisked Biden into a vehicle.

Agents quickly surrounded the sedan with guns drawn and aimed at its driver, who had his hands up. The cause of the crash was not immediately clear.

Special Agent Steve Kopek, a Secret Service spokesperson, said the vehicle that struck was securing Biden’s motorcade route.

    My prediction: It was really just an accident, but they’ll throw the book at the driver and lock him up for several years.

      Well yeah it’s not like a planned and malicious attack on congress, that only gets you a few months and that’s hundreds of elected officials.

      This is what, one old dude - accidental collision must be worth six years.
