Gunshots Fired Outside Joe Biden ’s Home

There were series of gunshots fired from a vehicle near the home of US Vice President, Joe Biden, in the US state of Delaware.
According to the US secret service, the United States of America Vice President, Joe Biden, and his wife were fortunately not at home at the time of the shooting on Saturday night, and no injuries caused by the incident were reported.
His home in the city of Wilmington is several hundred metres from the main road where the shots rang out.
The US authorities were searching outside the Biden residence and nearby houses to determine if any rounds hit anything.
According to the US secret service spokesman Robert Hoback, the shots were fired at about 8:25pm on a public road outside the secure perimeter near the home.
Secret service personnel heard the shots, and saw the vehicle drive past the home at high speed and flee the scene.
About 30 minutes later, an individual in a vehicle tried to pass a county police officer securing the outer perimeter of the area. That person was arrested for resisting arrest and was scheduled to be questioned regarding the shooting incident. Local police chief Jacob Andrews said it appeared the man was not involved in the shooting.
Young Cho, who lives two houses up from the Bidens, said that he heard four gunshots just before 8:30pm on Saturday.
“We heard the shots, four of them,” Cho told the Associated Press. “But next door there is always Secret Service so I wasn’t too worried. I feel really safe here. But it was really strange, to hear those kinds of shots next to the vice president’s house.”
Meanwhile, it was reported that half a dozen sport utility vehicles were parked near the entrance to the Bidens’ property on Sunday, January 18, 2015. According to the report,s the vehicles were providing a heavy security presence in the area. Shortly before 2pm, a motorcade of several more SUVs arrived at the house. It was unclear whether Biden was in any of the vehicles.
The Vice President had planned to speak on Monday in Wilmington at the Organization of Minority Women’s 31st Annual Dr Martin Luther King Jr breakfast.
