WASHINGTON — A man who was parked on the shoulder of the Inner Loop of the Capital Beltway near Good Luck Road in Maryland is expected to recover after being struck by a truck Monday night.
Josue Exsau Vasquez, 28, of Washington, D.C., sustained lacerations to his head, arms and legs. He was transported to University of Maryland Prince George’s Hospital Center for treatment.
