- Involvement of a U.S. vice presidential hopeful in a road accident.
En route to a political event supporting Democratic U.S. VP nominee Tim Walz, an unfortunate incident took place in his motorcade. News correspondents reported that multiple vehicles in the procession had crashed en route to a gathering in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Automobiles carrying journalists and campaign staff were involved, but Walz's vehicle remained untouched. A number of journalists and an aide from the campaign team sustained minor injuries in the crash. Walz himself remained unhurt.
Undeterred by the incident, Walz proceeded to address his supporter base in Milwaukee as scheduled. "I'm glad to announce that everyone is doing fine, barring a few minor scrapes," the 60-year-old addressed the crowd. He expressed his gratitude towards the security personnel and emergency services for their prompt assistance. Democratic Presidential candidate Kamala Harris and current U.S. President Joe Biden both reached out to Walz post-incident to ensure his well-being. The reason behind the crash remained unclear initially.
