Ambulance crashes into presidential motorcade
   
Saturday, February 6, 2010

A black Chevrolet Suburban travelling in President Barack Obama's 15 vehicle motorcade this morning in Washington, D.C. was struck by an ambulance Saturday morning, examiner.com has learned.

Alex Leary of the St. Petersburg Times first reported the incident in a White House pool report released this morning. As the motorcade went to depart The White House, members of the media were asked to stay back a few minutes as the Secret Service pulled out an extra SUV for them to get into to motorcade because an ambulance had been involved in a "fender bender" with one of the press SUVs. Leary described the damage as "minor."

Back in November, an advance vehicle in Vice President Joe Biden's motorcade in New York City crashed into a car service leaving three injured.

A spokesperson for the United States Secret Service did not return examiner.com's calls seeking clarification on the exact details of the accident.
