The campaign team of the United States' Vice Presidential candidate and Minnesota State Governor, Tim Walz, has been involved in an accident.
It was learnt that the accident which occurred on Monday afternoon affected vans carrying members of the press that were part of Tim Walz's motorcade.
Journalists travelling with the vice presidential nominee said the crash happened shortly before 1 p.m. on Interstate 794. Walz was on his way to an event celebrating Labor Day in Milwaukee.
A staff member in one of the press vans appeared to have a broken arm and was being treated by medics, according to the journalists, who said they were violently thrown forward as one van slammed into another in front of it and then was hit from behind.
Three weeks ago, SaharaReporters reported how Kamala Harris announced Governor Tim Walz (D) as her running mate for the November election against Donald Trump.

Harris said, “I am proud to announce that I've asked @Tim_Walz to be my running mate. As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he's delivered for working families like his. It's great to have him on the team. Now let’s get to work.”
Walz, 60, was a surprise contender for the vice-presidential spot, gaining momentum in recent days, particularly after a cable news interview where he criticised some Republicans as "weird".
This choice comes after initial speculation focused on other prominent Democrats, including Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro (D) and Arizona Senator Mark Kelly (D).
Walz's selection as Harris's running mate was also seen as a strategic move to appease the left, given his strong liberal credentials.
