People began to gather around 6:00 p.m. outside said station, for which Metro reported that the Line 4 is closed and no train stops due to the riots.

Later, the attendees advanced to Eduardo Cordero with Concha y Toro, where they keep barricades on, interrupting traffic to the center of the commune.
