The incident in which the security convoy of the U.S. Vice President Vance was hit by shrapnel from a shell has drawn attention.

Vice President Vance's security detail was attacked by artillery in California!

During a 250th anniversary exercise of the United States Marine Corps at Camp Pendleton, artillery shells fired by the Marine Corps exploded prematurely over a highway in California, just as Vice President Vance's security convoy passed, and the shell fragments accurately hit the convoy.

The patrol car and motorcycle that were hit were stationed on Interstate 5 to protect Vance returning from the commemorative event. The shooting came from an M777 howitzer, which can fire 155mm caliber shells.

The California Highway Patrol reported: "Metal fragments fired from above Interstate 5 exploded prematurely, hitting and damaging a patrol car. Traffic in the area was stopped at the time of the incident. The explosion of the ammunition did not cause any injuries, and the patrol personnel informed the Marines to cancel further live-fire shooting on the highway."
