A nurse and his wife, a paramedic, pulled over to render aid.

“My wife saw a body in the road, so we pulled up a little closer. We saw a guy sitting up and he had a bunch of injuries going on, bleeding,” Biran San Miguel, a nurse, told FOX5

The man suffered moderate injuries and was transported to the hospital. There were no other reported injuries.
