Burglary suspect hiding in pond killed by 11-foot alligator, authorities say

ORLANDO, Fla. _ A 22-year-old burglary suspect trying to evade authorities was killed by an 11-foot alligator last month, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office said.
Deputies said Matthew Riggins drowned as a result of the gator attack. He was missing his lower extremities and part of an arm, according to deputies.
Riggins and another man were in Barefoot Bay to commit house burglaries in the late evening hours of Nov. 12 and early morning hours of Nov. 13.

A forensic examination of the alligator located remains consistent with the injuries to Riggins inside the alligator's stomach," deputies said.

Cops: Burglar ID'd by hoodie with his name on it

Tip for burglars: Don't wear a garment printed with your name and the place where you work when committing a crime.
Better still: Don't wear that outfit while ransacking a building where you used to be an employee.
Yup. Police in Latrobe, Pa., a city near Pittsburgh, say Joshua Jording broke into the Unity Township taxi company where he used to work — sporting a hoodie stenciled with his first name and his new company, according to local media.
And now Jording, 26, of Latrobe, faces a preliminary hearing on burglary, theft and related charges on Dec. 14, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported.

The video showed Jording clad in a blue hoodie with the name "Josh" on it and the name of his new employer, a pest control company.
"The face looked familiar," Falbo added. "Once I saw the sweatshirt and the name on it, it made it all the more clear who it was."
