You probably already know the story.
But if not, this is a piece of true Americana.
Marv heemeyer was just an auto shop guy. Then a big concrete company moved in next door. The company blocked access to his business, but more importantly the city fined him $2,500 for not hooking up to a sewer line at his shop. He was cut off from the sewer line by the concrete company. He asked the concrete company to allow an easement for him to run the sewer line and they refused.
Stuck between the powers-that-be, Marv secretly armored his bulldozer with concrete and steel. He then made a plan to take Vengeance with no loss of life other than his own... This was a one-way mission!
On June 4th 2004, Marv took to the city in his armored killdozer demolishing the newspaper that mocked his pain and suffering. He did the same towards others involved in the city council decisions preventing him from continuing his business. It was noted that Marv would approach buildings are cars allowed occupants to get out before destroying them. Marv wasnt a murderer, just a forgotten every man.
Perhaps the finest moment was when the city attempted to fight Marv with their own construction equipment, and lost.
In the end, Marv knew there was no coming back and things ended with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. True to his plan, the only fatality.
