A man was hit and killed on the 210 Freeway on Thursday as he tried to flee federal agents raiding a Home Depot in Monrovia, Calif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monrovia City Manager Dylan Feik confirmed Thursday afternoon that the man died at an area hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 9:43 a.m., the Monrovia Police Department received reports of immigration agents approaching Home Depot. An officer observed possible Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents conducting enforcement activities at the site, according to Feik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As workers scrambled away from the agents, one person fled the hardware store on foot and entered the eastbound 210 Freeway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a few minutes later, Monrovia Fire & Rescue responded to a call of a vehicle collision with a pedestrian. The person was transported by ambulance to a hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feik said in a statement that the city of Monrovia did not have any information on the federal immigration operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere is no ongoing ICE activity reported in Monrovia at this time, and the City has not received any communication or information from ICE,\u201d he said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Palmira Figueroa, director of communications for the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, said 13 people were detained in the raid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immigration and Customs Enforcement did not immediately respond to the Los Angeles Times\u2019 request for comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In July,\u00a0Jaime Alan\u00eds Garcia, 57, was killed during an immigration raid at a farm in Ventura County. The circumstances of his death are still not fully clear, but it sparked concern among immigration advocates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alan\u00eds\u2019 family said he was fleeing\u00a0immigration agents at the Glass House Farms\u00a0cannabis operation in Camarillo, Calif., when he climbed atop a greenhouse and accidentally fell 30 feet, suffering catastrophic injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the Department of Homeland Security said that Alan\u00eds was not among those being pursued and that federal agents called in a medevac for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Home Depots, where immigrant laborers gather in search of work, have been the scene of numerous immigration raids across the region beginning this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
