Walz, his wife, Gwen, and Rep. Gwen Moore (D-WI) continued along with the rest of the motorcade to the site pf the Milwaukee Area Labor Council’s Laborfest, reported Matt Smith of WISN News.

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris was in Detroit for a campaign event, Deadline reported.

"Some of my staff and members of the press were traveling with us were involved in a traffic accident on the way here today," Walz said as he opened his rally Monday. "We've spoken with the staff, I'm relieved to say that with a few minor injuries, everyone is going to be ok."
