Employee Yordanis Cobos-Martinez, 37, is reported to have have got into an argument with his manager Chandra Nagamallaiah during a shift at a Dallas motel, according to an affidavit obtained by CBS.
Nagamallaiah, 50, had told him and another worker not to use a washing machine that was broken.
But Cobos-Martinez became angry over the manager using his fellow worker to translate the orders rather than speaking in Spanish, the documents claim.
Surveillance footage is reported to have then caught Cobos-Martinez exiting the room, drawing a machete and attacking his manager.
The manager’s wife and son then tried to intervene, but the alleged attacker continued his rampage until Nagamallaiah’s head came off, according to cops.
But in a shocking development, Cobos-Martinez then kicked the victim’s head into the parking lot and threw it in a dumpster, officers claimed.
Cobos-Martinez is an illegal immigrant from Cuba, according to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and already has an extensive criminal history.
He was previously detained by the agency, but had been released on January 13.
An ICE spokesperson told The New York Post: “This barbaric criminal was released because Cuba would not accept him because of his criminal history.
“Cobos-Martinez allegedly used a machete to behead a merchant he had an argument with in front of the merchant’s spouse and child.
“Reportedly, Cobos-Martinez then kicked the head of the victims ‘around like a soccer ball.’
“ICE has lodged the detainer with the Dallas County Jail, where this criminal illegal alien is being held.”
Witnesses to the machete attack called 911 and found the alleged perpetrator covered in blood and still holding the machete according to the Fort Worth Telegram.
Cobos-Martinez allegedly admitted to the gruesome attack in a police interview, the paper further reported.
He was charged with capital murder and is being held without bond, according to court records.
Jail records have also shown an immigration hold, according to CBS.
A witness told the broadcaster: “I feel bad for his family because he got a wife, they came out and they didn’t know what to do, she was screaming, hollering, but I told her to get back because I didn’t know if he was going to attack her too.”
Cobos-Martinez was previously charged with aggravated assault in 2018, and pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor assault charge, KHOU has reported.
Authorities then realised he was further wanted in California for carjacking, false imprisonment, and failure to appear.
He was subsequently extradited to that state to face charges.
KRNV has further reported that he was arrested in 2017 for trying to carjack a 22-year-old woman while naked.
