A Central Florida nonprofit identified the victim as Juan Jairo Coronilla Durán, who had recently been detained by ICE during an encounter in Florida.

The incident occurred when the truck driver, while navigating the area, struck the man, who was reportedly planning to return home to his family in Mexico.

Authorities confirmed that the collision happened shortly after the ICE operation, raising concerns about safety protocols for detainees in transit.

The nonprofit’s statement emphasized the need for better coordination between law enforcement and transportation services to prevent future tragedies.

Juan Jairo Coronilla Durán was 28 years old and had been traveling to Florida before the fatal accident.

ICE officials have pledged to review the circumstances and ensure that similar incidents are avoided.
