Some interesting items can be found in garbage bins, but a naked robbery suspect might be a first. A Buffalo, N.Y., man who allegedly robbed a Rite Aid store had been hiding in a city-owned garbage bin when he grew tired of waiting — in the buff no less — and jumped out of the bin to confess to nearby police. Police and witnesses say that after robbing the store and stabbing an employee, the suspect fled with nearly $1,000 in cash but ditched his clothes and the loot after being chased down by a store employee. The suspect won't be getting the loot back, of course. However, it looks as if he will be getting a new set of clothes — something of the orange jumpsuit variety, perhaps.
