Luis Humberto Galarce León died that day at 19:00 hours, at the Lo Espinoza bridge in the commune of Renca, due to abdominal gunshot wounds, as certified by the Medical Death Certificate from the Legal Medical Institute.

According to eyewitnesses, Luis Galarce was detained on October 15, inside a recreational property located across from the plaza of Renca, by Carabineros officers, who took him out through a back door that bordered a vacant lot, through which one could reach the Mapocho River. He was shot at that location. His body was found floating in the river and transported to the Legal Medical Institute.

Considering the evidence gathered and the investigation conducted by this Corporation, the Superior Council reached the conviction that Luis Humberto Galarce León was executed by State agents outside of any legal process, a situation constituting a human rights violation.
