An Indianapolis police officer fell off his motorcycle as he escorted President Trump through the city on Wednesday.

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Officer Robert Turner was one of a handful of local cops roped in to assist Trump's motorcade in the city. 

He was escorting him back to Air Force One at the airport when he suddenly fell off his bike on I-70. 

It is not known what caused the crash but Turner suffered a broken ankle and several cuts and abrasions.

Once on board Air Force One, President Trump phoned the wounded officer to ask how he was recovering and to thank him for his service. 

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department confirmed the accident on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon. 

'Motorcycle Officer slightly injured during POTUS motorcade. Transported in good condition.

'Officer continues to recover at hospital after accident escorting POTUS. Expected to be released in the near future,' they said. 

The president was in Indianapolis to deliver a rousing and revealing speech on his plans for tax reform.  He used it to describe his plan for the 'miracle middle class'.
