A suspected burglar jumped in a Florida lake apparently hiding from law enforcement before an 11-foot alligator killed him, investigators said Monday. His hand and foot reportedly turned up inside the animal's stomach.
Brevard County Sheriff's Maj. Tod Goodyear says 22-year-old Matthew Riggins told his girlfriend he would be in Barefoot Bay to commit burglaries with another suspect. Authorities received calls Nov. 13 about two suspicious men in black walking behind homes and investigated. Riggins was reported missing the next day.

If he was a serial killer or a sex predator, I’d be gloating and telling jokes.

These burglars are dumb not to learn from the mistakes of others.

Gator Rater: The meat was okay. Stringy, a little bit tough
and would have been much better after some time in a Croc-Pot.

I’ll wager that gator hide is worth more than what he and his fellow burglar ripped off in a week, they should have taken up poaching. :)
