I remember when it happened.
I lived in Colorado Springs, and it was on the local news as it unfolded - and for a couple of days after.
That was only a few years after another guy killed the mayor and trashed Alma, CO. He was mad that the city was going to FORCE people to connect to the new water and/or sewer system. I figure the killdozer guy got his idea from that event and "improved" on the plan.

Granby Attack Mirrors Alma Incident
The bulldozer attack in Granby is reminiscent of a 1998 heavy equipment attack in the Park County town of Alma.
In that case, a 50-year-old man was accused of shooting and killing the former mayor, firebombing town hall and then driving a stolen front-end loader into a number of buildings, including the post office, fire department and water treatment plant.
The man also burned down his own home and was captured after running into the nearby forest. Thomas Leask was sent to the state mental hospital, where he remains today.
