On this date in 2004, Marvin Heemeyer used a modified bulldozer (nicknamed “Killdozer”) to go on a destructive rampage in Granby, Colorado.  The basis for this incident was a zoning dispute that affected his business.  He caused destruction to 13 buildings, and at the end of this incident, he shot himself.  I do not recall ever hearing about this.

    I remember watching this on the news as it was live on cnn.. I was shocked to see this and then to know he shot himself, My prayers are with anyone who felt hurt by this man but also I pray for him…

      Wow! That is something! My mom does not remember it nor do I. But I did not watch the news that much in those days. Thanks for your heartfelt comment.
