LOS ANGELES (AP) — Home Depot stores in Southern California have long been an informal hub for day laborers in the country both legally and illegally who are seeking work. Now the locations have become a prime target for immigration agents. Day laborers say one store location in the Van Nuys area of Los Angeles has been raided by immigration authorities at least five times since June. While seeking work in the store parking lot, they now carry whistles to sound the alarm if agents arrive.
