WASHINGTON—Traffic outside the White House stopped on Tuesday during Manny Pacquiao’s whirlwind tour of the US capital that included meetings with President Barack Obama and Sen. Harry Reid. The Filipino boxing sensation was crossing the street near the White House when several drivers, who were trying to snap photos of Pacquiao with cell phones, caused a multicar pileup, Pacquiao publicist Fred Sternburg said. Nobody was hurt in the accident. Pacquiao and his wife Jinkee spent time talking boxing and basketball with President Obama, along with a bit of business. Pacquiao was elected representative in the Philippine Congress from Sarangani province nine months ago and has taken the new job as seriously as he does boxing. He already has explored building Sarangani’s first provincial hospital. | ||
