Construction workers fleeing an ICE raid at a building site near the CIA on Wednesday tried to scale fences around the spy agency’s headquarters, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers did not inform the agency of the raid in advance, and the incident caused a traffic jam outside the CIA complex in Langley, Virginia, during the morning commute, the source said.
