WASHINGTON – All lanes of the Inner Loop of the Capital Beltway at U.S. 50/John Hanson Highway, in Prince George’s County, have reopened after a fatal accident.
Maryland State Police tell WTOP that shortly after 3 a.m. a person was fleeing the scene of a separate crash when that person was struck by a car and killed.
WTOP’s Nick Iannelli who was on the Inner Loop when it was completely closed described it as a “parking lot.”
