The event was part of a nationwide demonstration called by a coalition of housing rights associations and labor unions, demanding access to housing and lower rental prices across the country. Clashes broke out when around 400 demonstrators surrounded and threw objects at police officers, injuring two, prompting a police charge. Organizers distanced themselves from the altercations.
