(22 May 2020) Residents of a poor neighborhood in Santiago protested on Friday, demanding food aid to cope with the lockdown in place in Santiago since late March.
One police officer was shot in an arm during the protest in Cerrillos, in which security forces also used tear gas and water cannon trucks to disperse the demonstrators.
Some protesters taking part in the demonstration blocked a street by burning makeshift barricades.
Elsewhere on Friday, in response to an increasing number of protests the government began a program to distribute thousands of food parcels within the Santiago metropolitan.
Various local administrators in mainly marginalized neighborhoods in the capital confirmed the number of soup kitchens had multiplied since the enforcement of lockdown measures in late March.
As of Friday Chile has reported more than 61,000 coronavirus cases and 630 deaths so far, according to a tally by Johns Hopkins University.
