    Like the 2019 crisis, this event is probably best analyzed within a larger period of polarization and human rights violations, in this case the 2006-2008 political crisis.

      The Defensoría del Pueblo issued a detailed report on the events of November 25–27, which I excerpt here.

          Security forces evidently shot Gonzalo Durán and José Luis Cardozo Lazcano during street confrontations. Both were part of civic movement crowds attempting to end deliberations of the Constituent Assembly.

            Overnight, frustrated right-wing crowds burned down many of the city’s police stations as well as the home of MAS-affiliated Prefect David Sánchez Heredia, who fled the country. Ironically, Sánchez had asked the assembly to stop deliberations after Durán's death.

              As protesters turned their anger upon the Transit Unit, which they burnt and destroyed. During confrontations inside it, protester Juan Carlos Serrudo was by a tear gas canister impact. The protesters proceeded to beat the police, who had run out of gas, and burn the building.

                None of this sequence is seriously disputed by the local newspaper, Correo del Sur, which was nonetheless a fearsome advocate of these three men's status as local martyrs
