Federal agents executed immigration raids outside a Home Depot in Van Nuys, detaining day laborers and raising concerns about compliance with a court order that prohibits racial profiling. The raids occurred during two separate operations, with witnesses noting that agents apprehended individuals before requesting identification. Maegan Ortiz of the Instituto de Educación Popular del Sur de California confirmed that the employees of the day labor center were specifically targeted. A recent court ruling aimed to restrict such actions without reasonable suspicion based on race or other identifying factors.
