A vigil was held Friday evening at the Monrovia Home Depot store that was the scene of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid that city officials say prompted a man to flee onto the Foothill (210) Freeway,

A man who fled as an immigration raid unfolded at a Home Depot in Southern California was killed when he ran onto a freeway as federal agents moved in, local officials said.
