MARLOW HEIGHTS, Md. - U.S. Park Police say a man was fatally struck by two U.S. Secret Service vehicles at a Suitland Parkway intersection.
Secret Service spokesman Malcolm Wiley says the two armored vehicles were traveling from Andrews Air Force Base to a Washington garage when the pedestrian was hit around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday at the intersection of Suitland Parkway and Naylor Road in Temple Hills.
Wiley says the vehicles were returning from a vice presidential trip to Fort Lewis in Washington state. He says the Secret Service employees driving the vehicles immediately stopped to help the man.

Peon! Serf! Didn’t he know enough to get out of the way of ‘The One?’
(And hit TWICE? Good Lord!)
I think you mean "The Two" (Biden)...
I hope they didn’t let Biden drive.
Prayers for the dead man’s family.
Hillary Clinton, Tom Lantos, Ellen Taucher, Feinstein's husband Blum, I think there's more, and they usually don't stop for any reason.
Yeah, they don’t call him “Number Two” for nothing. He’s full of number two!
Seriously, this is starting to sound a lot like a Tale of Two Cities.
‘The One in Training?’ *SHIVER*
If it was a Kennedy, it’s normal. But this is “The Won” we’re talking about.
Did Joe Biden get out of the limo and say "STAND UP CHUCK?"
Sorry...gallows humor.
I could have gone ALL DAY LONG without that thought in my head.
But nooooooo...
The Minus One................
Don’t forget Kennedy(s)..................
That's odd for a pedestrian to be there. It's HIGH traffic intersection with virtually no pedestrians anywhere - in fact, there's really nothing at that intersection except open field, unless I'm thinking of another intersection.
Bet it never makes the main stream fringe media.
At 0230?
“The Number Two”
Biden continually and wrongfully claimed that the driver of the truck that hit his first wife’s car was drunk. He’ll probably claim this pedestrian was drunk too.
I didn't even notice the time. But, that makes it even more peculiar. These are really two multi-lane parkways, especially Suitland. What is a guy doing at that intersection at that time of the morning? Unless of course he's drunk and wondering aimlessly. There's a train station right there at that intersection, and just a few hundred feet away, there's a huge urban nightclub as well.
From satellite view, your assessment seems accurate:
