We’re learning that the family of Martin Luther King Jr. got into a car accident while leaving the 50th Anniversary March on Washington ceremony.

According to TMZ:

Several of MLK Jr.’s siblings and grandchildren were on a charter bus leaving the rally when a van ran a red light … forcing the bus driver to slam on the brakes to dodge the vehicle.

We’re told Omarosa Manigault was on the bus with the family … and hit her head on the seat in front of her, but she’s okay…the bus driver was transported to a nearby hospital.

The accident occurred right after the family placed a wreath on the MLK Jr. memorial.

Story developing.
