Kamala Harris, the US Vice President, was involved in a car accident on Monday initially described by the Secret Service as a “mechanical failure”, according to reports. However, it has since emerged that the driver of the black SUV – a Secret Service agent – struck the kerb of a tunnel in downtown Washington DC, meaning a tyre had to be replaced. The minor collision happened near Foggy Bottom at around 10.20am.<\/p>\n

Ms Harris was transferred to another vehicle in the motorcade, which drove her to the White House.<\/p>\n

According to the Washington Post, Secret Service director Kim Cheatle was concerned about the description of events as a “mechanical failure”, and “was relieved to get the fuller account later that day”.<\/p>\n

Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi has since said in a statement: “During a protective movement Monday, a vehicle in a motorcade had a minor overcorrection and struck a kerb.<\/p>\n

“The protectee [Harris] was transferred to a secondary vehicle and the motorcade continued to its destination. <\/p>\n

“There were no injuries to anyone.”<\/p>\n

Mr Guglielmi added: “Initial radio traffic indicated this was a mechanical failure, and that was communicated to agency leadership by personnel supporting the motorcade movement. <\/p>\n

“After the protective movement was completed, leadership was verbally updated with additional pertinent facts that the vehicle struck a kerb.”<\/p>\n
