An armed saboteur held up the guard shortly before he started work, and forced him up into the company sewing room and warehouse on the 3rd floor of the building. The foreman and a seamstress were found here, and all three were locked inside a side room. Afterwards, they could hear 5-6 male persons walking noisily around the floor. After an hour of silence, the guard broke open the door. In the sewing room approximately 50 sewing machines and large quantities of cut fabric for German military uniforms had had hydrochloric acid poured over them. In addition, the uniforms had white ink poured over them. Several of the sewing machines had been violently blunted, probably with a hammer.
