The sole survivor of the fatal attack on Laius and his escort is the person that Oedipus asks to have brought to him at the end of Episode 2 in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Queen Jocasta's most trusted servant is the only person to survive the attack that leaves Theban King Creon and four members of his escort party dead. Upon his return to the palace, the servant requests a transfer back to shepherding in the hills outside Thebes. That he leaves the palace premises once Oedipus becomes King is the reason that the servant needs to be sent for when needed.
