Watch: President Biden rushed to safety after car smashes into SUV in motorcade

This is the moment President Joe Biden[1] and First Lady Jill Biden[2] are rushed to safety[3] after a car smashed into a parked SUV that was guarding the presidential motorcade[4]. Mr Biden[5] was walking out of his campaign headquarters in Wilmington[6], Delaware[7] to his waiting armoured SUV when a sedan hit a US Secret Service[8] vehicle that was closing off intersections for the president’s departure, on Sunday (17 December). The silver sedan then tried to continue into a closed-off intersection, before Secret Service personnel surrounded the vehicle with weapons drawn and instructed the driver[9] to put his hands up.

Wilmington Police Department spokesperson David Karas said local officers are “investigating the motor vehicle collision”.
