11-foot gator eats burglary suspect hiding in Florida pond

Story by Victoria Price/CBS12

BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. --  Authorities say a burglary suspect was killed by an 11-foot gator while hiding from authorities in a Florida pond.

The Brevard County Sheriff's Office says 22-year-old Matthew Riggins drowned as a result of the gator attack.

Riggins and another suspect were in a neighborhood in Barefoot Bay to burglarize homes, Brevard County Sheriff's officials say. Riggins and the other man were spotted on Royal Palm Boulevard, but eluded authorities.

Riggins nor the other man were never located by deputies.

Riggins reportedly called his girlfriend to say he was being chased by authorities.

I suppose that it's a tad late to mention this, but if you don't want bad things to happen to you, don't do bad things in the first place! :whistling:

The guy did enter the gator's home uninvited.

Due to trauma observed on the body, a FWC trapper was called and an alligator approximately 11-foot in length was trapped and euthanized.

The alligator had to euthanized. The alligator did what everyone wants to do to criminals. What an injustice!  :mad: :argh:
