BREVARD COUNTY, Florida - A Florida man on the prowl to burglarize homes was eaten by an alligator after fleeing deputies, according to the Brevard County Sheriff's Office. The Sheriff's Office said that 22-year-old Matthew Riggins of Palm Bay, Florida, whose body was discovered in a Barefoot Bay lake on November 23, drowned as a result of the alligator attack. During the recovery of Riggins' body, Sheriff’s Dive Team members encountered a large alligator aggressively approaching the area where the body was located. Due to trauma observed on the body, a Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission trapper was called and an alligator approximately 11-foot in length was trapped and euthanized. A forensic examination of the alligator located remains consistent with the injuries to Riggins inside the alligator’s stomach. Investigators believe that the following events led up to the death of Riggins: During the late evening/early morning hours of November 12-13, 2015, Riggins advised his girlfriend that he was going to Barefoot Bay to commit burglaries with another male subject. At approximately 2 a.m. on November 13, deputies responded to the area of Tequesta Drive in Barefoot Bay after a resident called reporting that two males, dressed in black, were walking behind houses in the area. During a search of the area, two males were observed on Royal Palm Boulevard. Upon seeing the deputies, the male subjects fled on foot in an attempt to avoid apprehension.

Fucking Florida, man. I’ve always said to anyone moving here for the first time that you should never start shit with people because in The Sunshine State, you never know which psychopath has a gun and wants to use it. Like the whole Road Rage incident a few years back. The heat gets to our brains and we can’t control our tempers anymore here. Well my second piece of advice is, if you’re on the lam, don’t hide in the wilderness because something in there almost assuredly can and wants to kill you. Its not even like this kid was hiding out in marsh land either. If he was hiding in Billie Swamp Safari, he should 100% expect to get eaten by the 100 or so animals that can kill you out there. But I get the feeling he was almost in some neighborhood retention pond and still got his ass mauled to death by an 11 foot gator. That’s what he have here now self patrolling our streets I guess. Giant ass 11 foot gators in case criminals try to run and hide in residential neighborhoods. I don’t really want anyone to die, but if its a proven method to stopping criminals I’ll be sure to bring it up at the next HOA meeting, having gators patrol the streets at night in case of criminals.

PALM BAY, Fla. —A Palm Bay man said he wanted to explode in anger when he saw what happened to his front lawn. GET BREAKING NEWS ALERTS Be the first to know when news breaks in Central Florida. MORE Police are now investigating after someone used a chemical to write a racial slur on the man's lawn in huge letters. Courtney Gordon's lawn serviceman pointed it out to him. The N-word, in three-foot letters, on his front lawn. "I feel like this is a threat to me and my family, so I'm not too happy about it," Gordon said. "You can see them slowing down when they go by my house, so everybody's just driving by and reading it." Gordon has an idea who might have done it. He notified police, and they're investigating. "I have a feeling of who done it. It's like a group of them, and I leave them to God," Gordon said. "I'm a big guy, so they're not gonna come to me and say that. They did it like the way they did it, behind my back and at night." Police told Gordon it's a hard crime to solve, unless someone confesses. If the vandalism is classified as a hate crime, it can be prosecuted as a higher degree of misdemeanor, with an enhanced penalty. "I feel that they're a coward, because if they have an issue with me, it's just best to come and speak to me, and not take it to a level as this," Gordon said. Also see: Resident describes moment tree fell on house in Fern Park Gordon has a surveillance camera, but it wasn't on at the time. Gordon said it will be from now on. That section of Gordon's lawn is being re-sodded, and he said the expense is just part of what's so upsetting.

Just a suuuuuupppppeeerrrr aggressive move here. I know politically and racially theres no difference between the N-word with a soft “-a” at the end or a hard aggressive “-er” but it makes all the difference in the world in my mind. Yea on the surface its like asking if someones dead or super dead. A hate crimes a hate crime and theres no other way to cut it and you shouldnt be branding that on peoples lawn, but the difference in my mind between a “-a” and an “-er” is the difference between some idiot who cant freely think and just brainwashed into hating black people and some hate mongering fascist grand wizard clans man that is out for blood. These guys went with the hard “-er.” Its gotta go beyond just a vandalism charge with that little suffix at the end. Love the balls on this guy though. Big black dude telling them right to their face in the news that they’re cowards and dont have the balls to say it to his face. Just cheap people who took a cheap shot.
