A Vermont man was caught on camera wildly swinging an excavator near two state troopers who were arresting his son for burglary.   

Troopers Gabe Schrauf and Skylar Velasquez were seen on the dashcam grappling with Brandon Tallman, 24, before throwing him to the ground during the arrest outside a home in Hardwick, Vermont on June 14.

Brandon's mother Amy, 48, then joined the melee before she too was arrested.

All the while, a big, red excavator could be seen approaching the officers down the driveway, as they struggled to cuff the mother and son. 

The excavator, which police say was being driven by Brandon's father Wayne Tallman, 52, looms closer to the rabble and the machine's heavy metal shovel begins swinging.  

The officers then notice the machinery and one drew his gun and dodged the machine's shovel while the other restrained Amy and Brandon on the ground. Nobody was hurt in the incident and all the Tallmans were arrested. 

Wayne was charged with aggravated assault on a protected official, resisting arrest, impeding, and reckless endangerment. Amy was cited for impeding an officer, and Brandon Tallman, 24, was arrested on his original charge of aggravated assault and burglary.
