to death in the church study

prised burglars at work in the
Westwood Baptist Church.
Detective 1t. Richard c.
Grundish said he believes the
minister tripped over a stool
and fell, and that the shotgun
he carried discharged acct
dentally.
He said Mr.. Riggs had been
carrying the gun with the
safety catch of, and that all
evidence indicated no one
could have placed the body
and the gun in the positions
found.
1t. Grundish also said there
Is no doubt that burglars were
at work when the pastor left
his adjoining parsonage to en-
ter the church. He believes
they fled when the minister
entered.
