A suspected burglar has been killed by an alligator while hiding out in a pond.
The body of Matthew Riggins, 22, was found in water in Barefoot Bay in Florida ten days after he was reported missing.
Police said Riggins was attacked by an 11-foot long alligator while he was hiding out after a series of planned break-ins.
Before he was reported missing, Riggins called his girlfriend to tell her he would be in the area breaking into homes.

What an awful way to go. I believe gators kill and then let the flesh rot to eat later. That’s how they like it. Shoulda left him.

Yeah, right. I don’t recall one story out of all the alligators in the NYC sewers ever helping out the police in this way.

Clearly karma was involved in this, lol.
