Eight men were tied up and beaten on Vrbanov pod, looted the village and then threw a man on the ground and set fire to him. They burned down 12 houses. One tried to escape, but they threw the injured man into the fire. Nine villagers died, women and children were taken to Šentvid near Ljubljana and then to German camps.
