An Indian man was unintentionally buried while constructing a bridge in the city of Coimbatore in the Indian state of Tamilnad.

The man was sleeping among the stones at the construction site and the workers dropped tons of sand over the man without noticing his presence.

The man was found buried with sand two days later when the tractors began to level the ground, with empty bottles of alcohol.

Indian police do not rule out the man drinking alcohol before he falls asleep. Another hypothesis is that unknown persons killed him and then concealed his body in the sand under the bridge.
