The proconsul then pronounced this sentence on him: “I command that Maximus, for refusing to obey the sacred edicts, be stoned to death, to serve for an example of terror to all Christians.” St. Maximus was immediately seized by the executioners
and carried without the city walls, where they stoned him on the 14th of May. (http://www.bartleby.com/210/4/302.html)
