A 69-year-old man is expected to survive the injuries he suffered when he was struck by a motorist in the Otay Mesa West community of San Diego, a police officer said Sunday.
A 19-year-old man was driving his 2001 Mercedes-Benz C240 northbound
in the 3000 block of Beyer Boulevard when he struck the pedestrian in the No. 1
