Washington (CNN) – A U-Haul truck loaded with equipment for a Monday event featuring Vice President Joe Biden was stolen in Detroit Sunday, a spokesman for the U.S. Secret Service said.
"A U-Haul that we were utilizing was stolen at the Westin Hotel overnight," Ed Donovan told CNN.
Donovan would not specify what equipment was in the U-Haul at the time it was stolen, and added that the theft shouldn't affect the vice president's plans on Monday.
Biden is scheduled to speak at a Labor Day rally in downtown Detroit Monday and march in a parade organized by the Michigan AFL-CIO. Last year President Barack Obama spoke at the Motor City's Labor Day celebration.

Can't blame it on the Republicans as there are none in Detroit. However, it could be the work of the DNC as they don't want Joe to put his foot in his mouth again.
Was Biden in it???
Please tell us Biden was in the truck when it was stolen
they need more welfare
Oh no! They got a truck full of chains!
BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Welcome to Detroit - may you receive the same treatment that OWS people got when they were in Detroit. XD
Hope Joe will be in Full Body Armour.
Are we sure Ol' Joe didn't just forget where he parked it?
Solen? No, this arranged theft is how Democrats pay off their union pals.
Think of the equipment as redistributed, not stolen.
Detroit is coming out for Biden in a big way.
Well, somehow...this was Bush's or the GOP's fault...don't know how...but that's what the Obama Campaign is thinking they need to spin it to be that way.
If you have a Uhaul, you didn't rent that! Somebody else rented that!
Just Crazy Uncle Joe "spreading the wealth around" on his new "Summer of Recovery Tour 3- This Time for Sure."
No doubt by one of their own Democrats.
I guess not only do you steal our money, our taxpayer funded items are also stolen
ha ha, he ain't gettin it back either
Are they sure Uncle Joe didn't just misplace it with his brain?
Its not thief, it is redistribution of wealth, so what is the problem?
It was the tax payers equipment anyway and they were just taking it back
Axelrod & Co. figured out how to keep Tripwire Joe from campaigning for Romney/Ryan. Shame. He's the gift that keeps on giving. I was looking forward to watching him blow up like a Bouncing Betty mine again.
That is ok.
Biden knows his stuff inside out. he is not Romney, doesn't need his telepromter.
Go for it. Joe
Ironically, the U-Haul was full of speeches that Joe Biden has stolen over the decades.
Tea party sabotage
or
Joe Biden false flag
joey biden is a disaster.
