Some 5,000 mostly high school students...demanding better facilities and free education...encountered riot police in Santiago...armed with tear gas and water cannons.
At least 50 were arrested...and 3 police were injured.
Reportedly...university students have taken a back seat in the new protests.
But...as usual...only the dogs were having fun chasing water and getting doused.
