Patrol officers noticed several people running away and jumping over the barrier on to the motorway. At this point a man ran into the path of an oncoming car and was struck.

Ambulance crew were unable to save his life.

The man had no identity documentation and it is assumed he had crossed the border illegally.

Patrol officers, meanwhile, apprehended seven Syrian nationals nearby.
