* Granby, Colorado property rampage
* Marvin Heemeyer's bulldozer frenzy
* Armored himself in steel and concrete
Page 11 has a heading that reads: "Gunman Rampages in Plated Bulldozer" with 2 related photos. (see images) The fate of Heemeyer was still not known at the time of publication in this edition.
Complete with all sections (120+ pages), nice condition.
wikipedia notes: Marvin Heemeyer was a local auto muffler shop owner who had multiple disputes with the town over zoning, sewage, and other issues. As a result, on June 4, 2004, Heemeyer went on a rampage through town, driving a modified bulldozer. Several buildings were damaged, including a bank, a hardware store, the concrete company, a utility service center, the town hall, the police department, and a former mayor's home. The rampage lasted 2 hours and 7 minutes, ending when the bulldozer got stuck attempting to go through the alleyway of Gambles Hardware Store. Heemeyer then committed suicide with a handgun. No other deaths occurred, but an estimated $7 million in damage was done.
