It seems like only yesterday…

Today marks the 5th anniversary of Marvin Heemeyer’s rampage, in which he welded himself in a custom armored enclosure built on top of a 49-ton bulldozer and proceeded to demolish 13 buildings in and around Granby. Despite hundreds of rounds fired, a grenade dropped down the exhaust stack, and the enlistment of two other pieces of heavy equipment, the police proved utterly unable to stop Heemeyer, who killed himself after his bulldozer eventually overheated and became stuck on a set of stairs.
