UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson escaped unhurt today in a minor auto crash in London.
Johnson had just left the Parliament, when a protester leapt in front of his £54,000 Jaguar car.
The driver applied a sudden break, forcing the security vehicle following behind to hit the Prime Minister’s vehicle.
The lead car was forced to stop. But Johnson was unscathed as the vehicles drove off.
His car however showed a dent on the boot. The police later arrested the protester.
The demonstrator was taken into the Palace of Westminster and the Met Police later confirmed they had arrested a man for offences under Section 5 of the Public Order Act and for obstructing the highway.
Downing Street has said there are no reports of any injuries, and a spokesman said a protester was detained after running in front of the silver Jaguar.
A Number 10 spokesman confirmed the car was Mr Johnson’s, adding: “I think the video speaks for itself as to what happened. No reports of anybody being injured.”
The spokesman said Mr Johnson was travelling in the car at the time.
