A Florida man buried his boss nearly waist-deep in dirt during an argument at a construction site that ended in serious injuries, according to police.

Erick Cox, 32, was arrested for aggravated assault on Wednesday. Cox, who goes by the nickname "Pork Chop," was released from Volusia County jail on a $5,000 bond, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

"He ran him over and covered him up with dirt! Send somebody out there, please," a 911 caller told a dispatcher, WESH-TV reported.

A Volusia County Sheriff's deputy responded to a call about a fight on Wednesday morning at Debary construction site. A witness told the deputy he saw Cox dump dirt onto the site supervisor, "which pinned him to the ground," according to an incident report.

Now I know why my old boss never let me run the back hoe.

But, seriously, a cubic meter of dirt weighs about a ton. Don't do that to someone.
