Timeline

At 5:00 PM, Radosavljević was eating with his wife Jelena. After an argument he punched her in the face and Jelena fell down. Radosavljević jumped into a well. By 5:30 PM, Dragoslav Badžikić got him out of the well. A few minutes later, Radosavljević got his hunting rifle and walked out into the street.

Radosavljević then shot and killed a number of people in the vicinity. On the street at one point, Radosavljević met an older woman. He asked her in Romanian if she practiced magic. When she said no, he let her live.

At 1:30 AM the following day, Radosavljević was arrested and taken to Niš hospital. Team of psychiatric experts pronounced him permanently mentally disabled, suffering of acute paranoid psychosis. He is currently incarcerated indefinitely in the Special Prison Hospital in Belgrade.[4]
