The attack took place on July 17, 1808, and the investigation was conducted by us, the undersigned. First, Mihailo Fratrić stated that on the mentioned day, with Nikola and Đorđe Fratrić, Augustin Radoš and Đorđe Jozić, he stayed at the "Đakovska" winery for fun, but returned home earlier, as he had a high temperature and did not feel well, and did not attend the attack. of his friends and acquaintances to the Jew Laurence Herceg. However, he knows that Nikola and Djordje Fratric said the following in front of him and other witnesses that evening: "If you had been, if you had seen how we plucked Jews’s beard!" That is all he knows. Another witness, Martin Fratric, said that, standing not far from the scene of the incident, he saw that a Jew, approaching on carts, first addressed the attackers, and then turned off the road, but that they grabbed the carts by the wheels and tried to stop them. They overturned the cart, the Jew was then knocked to the ground and that Augustine Rados grabbed him by the chin. That's all he knows.

That they wore hoods, that he did not know them by name, and that he therefore deliberately diverted the carts from the road - out of decency and in order to avoid any quarrel.
