Joe Biden unharmed as vehicle collides with presidential motorcade

Secret Service indicate collision was accident in rainy conditions as president left campaign HQ in Delaware

A sedan hit a sport-utility vehicle in Joe Biden's motorcade on Sunday night in Delaware, causing no injuries in what officials said appeared to be a car accident rather than an intentional act.

The president's motorcade was preparing to take Biden and the first lady, Jill Biden, to their residence in Wilmington after a campaign dinner with staffers and volunteers. Biden had stepped out on to the street when a crash could be heard down the street from Biden and his protective Secret Service detail.
