_Burglary suspect hides in Florida lake, where gator eats him_

"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."

I wonder who "reported him missing".

The article says "Tod Goodyear says 22-year-old Matthew Riggins told
his girlfriend he would be in Barefoot Bay to commit burglaries with
another suspect."

Do you think she was dumb enough to call the police when he didn't
come home that night?


Maybe. This is FloriDUH. Stranger things have happened.

Police: "OK, ma'am, when was the last time you saw your boyfriend?"

GF: "Well, yesterday afternoon he told me that he was going to rob
some houses in Barefoot Bay. He does that sort of thing a lot, but
he always comes home and he usually brings me something pretty. I
hope you can find him. I'm really worried, plus I need a new dress
for the holidays."
