WILMINGTON: Multiple gunshots were fired from a vehicle near the Delaware home of Vice President Joe Biden on Saturday night, the US Secret Service said on Sunday.
The vice president and his wife were not at home at the time of the shooting, authorities said.
The Wilmington home is several hundred metres from the main road where the shots rang out, and authorities were searching outside the Biden residence and nearby houses to determine if any rounds hit anything.
Police in New Castle County, Delaware, said there were no reports of any injuries related to the shooting.
Secret Service spokesman Robert Hoback said the shots were fired at about 8.25pm on a road outside the secure perimeter near the home.
Secret Service personnel heard the shots, saw the vehicle drive past the home at a high speed and flee the scene.
