The Trump administration is not having a good week. First, Sean Spicer sparked social media outrage after he made several Holocaust gaffes in Tuesday’s press briefing. Now, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson got stuck in an elevator in Miami.

According to CNN, Carson, who has since been rescued, was stuck in an affordable housing complex elevator while former Miami Heat and NBA star Alonzo Mourning waited for the fire department to arrive. Rene Rodriguez of The Miami Herald reported that Carson was freed after 20 minutes.

Carson later tweeted about the meeting with Mourning, writing, “Great meeting w/ Alonzo Mourning who is doing great work with low income housing & thanks to the hard working @miamipd and @cityofmiamifire.”

Mourning broke ground on the affordable housing project Courtside Family Apartments in 2015. According to a report from The Miami Herald, “A family of four would have to make less than $40,600 to qualify.”

Carson was confirmed as HUD secretary last month.
