00:00A homeowner threatened the workers with immigration instead of paying them, so they tore up his new driveway.
00:05The crew had spent several days repaving the driveway in front of the house.
00:08By the time the job was finished, the concrete was already down and the project was basically complete.
00:14Then it was time to pay the remaining balance.
00:16The homeowner refused.
00:18He told the workers that if they kept asking for the money, he would contact immigration authorities and report them
00:24as undocumented.
00:25He apparently thought that would scare them enough to leave without collecting the rest of what they were owed.
00:30Instead, the plan backfired.
00:32The workers' status was checked, and they were legally in the country, so the crew returned to the property.
00:38This time they were not there to finish anything.
00:40They started breaking apart the same driveway they had just poured.
00:44Piece by piece, the new concrete was turned back into rubble while the homeowner watched.
00:48Some people say the workers were completely justified.
00:51If he was not going to pay for the driveway, why should he get to keep it?
00:55Others say once the job was finished, destroying the property was not the right way to collect a debt.
01:01So who crossed the line first?
01:02The homeowner who refused to pay or the crew that took the driveway back?
