GRANBY, Colo. (News 4) A person with a gun has reportedly driven a bulldozer with armor welded to it into several buildings in the town of Granby and heavily damaged the Town Hall, News 4 reports.

The suspect fired shots, and it is unknown what his motive was. Witnesses said police were firing shots at the bulldozer, but were not able to penetrate the armor.

Several buildings were heavily damaged in the main section of town, according to witnesses. Witness Teri Hertel told News 4 by phone that the driver plowed through several trees and signs on the street.

The caterpillar tractor had armor welded to it, according to News 4 photojournalist Rob McClure on scene.

Many police were responding to the situation, including the Jefferson County SWAT team. Emergency crews also called for evacuations, according to witnesses.

Next we'll see a call for registration of all bulldozers.

Weapons of mass demolition.

Only one thing that can stop a runaway bulldozer, but Michael Moore's in France.

I'd let the Colorado Air-National Guard have a little live-munitions target practice on it then...a missile from a fighter jet and Apache would put a stop to this crap.

Most people wouldn't know a .50 Caliber from a BB gun.
