Grover Vicente Braniff Rojas died that day at 24:00 hours, at the Roy Glover Hospital in Chuquicamata, due to septic shock caused by a transfixing left thoraco-abdominal gunshot wound, with colon rupture, as recorded in the Medical Death Certificate issued at the same hospital.

On November 25, around 22:00 hours and during the curfew, Grover Braniff left his home in the city of Calama in the company of a neighbor, who later recounted what happened. While they were walking, they were intercepted by a military patrol that ordered them to stop; when they had already obeyed and were standing with their arms raised, the uniformed personnel fired at them, striking Grover Braniff.

They then transported him to the Chuquicamata Hospital, where he passed away.

Considering the background information gathered by this Corporation, the Superior Council declared Grover Vicente Braniff Rojas a victim of human rights violations by State agents who made excessive use of force.
