After being pulled over by FL troopers, a TX man swallowed earrings worth $770K that he stole from Tiffany & Co. in Orlando, police said.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — 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.

A man was arrested after possibly swallowing nearly $800,000 in jewelry he stole from an Orlando mall, according to police records.
