The garage was leased to the Wehrmacht and was used by the HIPO Corps personnel. Under the guise of being workers, several saboteurs entered the garage at 6 pm and planted two powerful explosive charges. Reinforcement arrived very quickly in the form of HIPO people from the police station and other places nearby. They then proceeded to shoot in every direction, but no one was hit.
