• That day, 48 hours after the constitutional guarantees were restored, the government's policy led to the people, with the result of three demonstrators injured, one of them seriously.
• The victims of the agents led by Digepol Santos Gómez were:

• The concentration of more than 3,000 unemployed people, demanding bread and work, in front of the headquarters of the former National Congress, was dispersed at the point of machine guns by Digepol.
• The unemployed requested that the affiliated government of Ad-Copei-URD fulfill its promise to open up new sources of work and to pay the previously approved labor subsidy of 25 million bolivars.
• The demonstration was peaceful and crossed several points in downtown Caracas: the Capitol, the headquarters of the CTV, the Simon Bolivar Center and Plaza La Concordia.
• At this last meeting point, agents of the General Police Directorate (Digepol), manning an A6-41-55 license plate patrol, shot at the defenseless workers.
• The union leader, Simón González, was arrested for the sole crime of having spoken to the demonstrators in an impromptu speech on the corner of the hospital.
• The Minister of Internal Relations, Carlos Andrés Pérez, categorically refused to meet or receive representatives of the assaulted labor forces, who went to his office to request the release of the arbitrarily arrested union leader.
