On June 4, 2004, Marvin Heemeyer, a local businessman and skilled welder, used a 50-ton Komatsu D335A bulldozer he had custom armed and armor-plated (often dubbed by locals and the media as "The Kill Dozer") to damage or destroy several buildings in Granby, Colorado. Some buildings included the town hall, the public library, a bank, a concrete batch plant, and a house owned by the town's former mayor, resulting in over $7 million in damage. Heemeyer was reportedly upset over a zoning dispute which he believed led to the closure of his muffler shop; he targeted buildings owned by those involved in his dispute. Nobody was injured in the incident, though Heemeyer committed suicide when he was unable to free the bulldozer when its radiator broke down and the machine became stuck inside a hardware store he was damaging. The machine was later dismantled and it's parts were each sent to several scrapyards to prevent admirers of Heemeyer from taking souvineers. and here is a model of the destructive machine right here on the 3D warehouse! Enjoy and rate.
