Kamala Harris’ motorcade had a near miss Monday night with a car going the wrong way on a Milwaukee highway after a campaign stop in Wisconsin’s Waukesha County. The motorcade was reportedly traveling east on Interstate 94 when a white car approached from the opposite direction. Deputies with the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Department believe the driver was drunk. When they pulled the vehicle over, they allegedly spotted an open container and made the driver—an as-yet-unnamed 55-year-old—complete a field sobriety test. They then took the driver into custody on suspicion of operating a vehicle while intoxicated and reckless endangerment. No one was injured in the incident, but video from a local news reporter shows the car cruising slowly by Harris’ fleet.
