California Governor Gavin Newsom was caught on video running over a Chinese boy while playing a basketball game during his trip to the country.
The short clip, which was shared by RNC Research, an arm of the Republican National Committee, shows the California governor showing off his ball-handling skills before moving toward the basket and through one of the children trying to defend him.
Newsom and the young man can be seen falling to the ground, with the governor wrapping him in a bear hug and playfully patting him on the back as they get up.
A spokesperson for Newsom’s office told Fox News Digital that the incident occurred while the governor was at Yuying School, a public school in Beijing, where he visited to “see farm to school and other agricultural science programs in China”.
The mishap occurred during Newsom’s weeklong trip to China, where the California governor met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Beijing on Wednesday.
Newsom told reporters earlier this week that the purpose of the trip was to “turn the page, renew our friendship and re-engage in fundamental, fundamental issues that will determine our collective faith in the future.”
In a press conference after the meeting, Newsom said he and Xi discussed ways to “accelerate our progress on climate in a meaningful and substantive way,” according to a CBS News report.
Leaders are also looking at fentanyl, Newsom said, a drug responsible for killing thousands of people in the United States and often trafficked to North America from China.
