X-ray shows diamond earrings swallowed by theft suspect during arrest, police say:​

A suspected thief gulped down two pairs of diamond earrings during his arrest on the side of a Florida Panhandle highway last week, detectives say, leaving them with the unenviable task of waiting to "collect" the Tiffany & Co. jewelry worth nearly $770,000.

In the squad car, a state trooper heard the suspect say, "I should have thrown them out the window," and at the Washington County jail he asked staff, "Am I going to be charged with what is in my stomach?" according to the arrest report.

The 32-year-old man from Texas is accused of two felonies for forcibly stealing the earrings from an upscale Orlando shopping center last Wednesday…

During the theft, the man allegedly told Tiffany sales associates he was interested in purchasing diamond earrings and a diamond ring on behalf of an Orlando Magic basketball player. Sales associates escorted the man to a VIP room where he could view the jewelry. A short time later, he jumped out of his chair, grabbed the jewelry and tried to force his way out of the door.


"These foreign objects are suspected to be the Tiffany earrings taken in the robbery but will need to be collected ... after they are passed," the department's arrest report said.

Orlando police spokeswoman Kaylee Bishop said Wednesday she was checking with the lead detective on whether the earrings had been recovered yet.

While people across the country are starting to go on spring break, Yellowstone is now in its second winter (with more to come)! If your dream spring break includes snowdrifts and the occasional bison traffic jam, come on up to the North Entrance in Gardiner, Montana—it’s the only one open! Just don’t forget your parka.

WOW. File this under "unprecedented as far back as observations go."Not only is the 40-45 degrees temperature gradient between Boston and NYC right now something we haven't seen before... but it's SNOWING right now in Boston while it's 80 in NYC!Insane backdoor gradient.
