Marvin's Bulldozer,On June 4, 2004, a shocking incident occurred in the small town of Granby, Colorado, USA. Marvin Heemeyer, a veteran, drove a modified bulldozer to carry out retaliatory destruction on the town due to a land dispute.
Marvin ran an auto repair shop in the town. Later, the town re-planned the land and wanted to build a cement plant around his repair shop, which would seriously affect his business. Marvin failed to negotiate the land acquisition with Cody, the owner of the cement plant, who also blocked the passage between the repair shop and the highway. Marvin's appeal to the town government was unsuccessful, and he was fined for sewage discharge issues, eventually having to close his repair shop.
Enraged, Marvin decided to take revenge. He modified a second-hand Japanese Komatsu D355A bulldozer into an armored vehicle, adding bulletproof steel plates, guns, and installing cameras. Then, he drove this bulldozer and knocked down 13 buildings within 3 hours, including the cement plant, TV station, bank, government building, mayor's house, and police station. Although the police arrived in time, the bulldozer's shell was too thick for their conventional weapons to work. Even the special police force using armor-piercing bullets and bomb blasts failed to stop it. Finally, the bulldozer got stuck in a pit due to engine overheating, and Marvin shot himself inside the vehicle.
The incident caused more than 7 million dollars in losses but no casualties. After the truth of the incident was exposed, some Americans, sympathizing with Marvin's experience, regarded him as a hero.
