Adolph Coors III (d. February 8, 1960), was once the heir to the Coors beer empire. In Colorado in 1960, Joseph Corbett Jr tried to kidnap Coors, failing; Coors died in the incident. A national manhunt for Corbett was authorized; Coors' murderer was captured in Canada in October of that year.
Ironically, Coors was allergic to beer.
