    Aye, it's a newsdump, but I thought it was gas. To circumvent copyright laws which I don't understand fully, I've removed some words from the pasted article, as presumably some people might have blocked the Daily Mail website.

    An alligator drowned a Florida man trying to hide from police - and then ate his [].
    Matthew Riggins, 22, was reported missing on November 13, shortly after he and another [] had made a plan to rob houses in Barefoot Bay according to his girlfriend.
    His [] was found 10 days later floating in Barefoot Bay pond - closely guarded by an 11-foot alligator.
    'He hid in the wrong place,' said local [] Laura Farris.

    Bay News 9 reports that Riggins and his accomplice were spotted lurking behind [] by neighbors who called police the night of their alleged robberies.
    Deputies arrived on the scene at around 2am on November 13 and began to look for the men, using K-9 units and even a [] to try and track the pair.
    They both managed to evade authorities however, and Riggins even called his girlfriend during the chase to let her know [] and to tell her he was laying low.
    Unfortunately, he decided to lay low near the edge of [] and was reported as missing by his family that same day.
    'He probably went into the lake to hide from the officers and the [], and came across that gator,' said Major Tod Goodyear of the Brevard County Sheriff's Office.

    The alligator also met an untimely end on the day Riggins body was discovered as a trapper from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission was [] to euthanize the reptile after it aggressively began approaching divers sent to recover Riggins corpse.

    I'm sure there'll be a few "bleedin-heart liberals" along to shed a few "crocodile tears" </obligatory> for the wee scrote, but I just feel bad for the poor alligator :(

    No worse death than the lad last week who was climbing down the chimney to rob a house. He got stuck, the house owner lit the fire and then heard yer man screaming and coughing. Called the fire crews but he was smoked/roasted/toasted by the time they got him out.

    So the only thing the alligator didn't eat was his knob?

    Alligators don't like knobs?
