Random Killdozer

In 2004, Marvin Heemeyer decided he'd had enough...

Marvin John Heemeyer (October 28, 1951 – June 4, 2004) was an American welder and an automobile muffler repair shop owner. He was angered over the adverse outcome of a zoning dispute, and used a Komatsu D355A bulldozer armored with layers of steel to demolish the town hall, a former judge's home and other buildings in Granby, Colorado on June 4, 2004.
