Tolivar is from Daytona Beach, Florida, The Miami Herald reported. It's unclear what brought him to Illinois.

Even more of a mystery is how he came into possession of two commodes -- and why he allegedly used one to commit a crime.

“No matter where the people of Florida go they always have the craziest crimes,” someone commented on an East St. Louis Police Department Facebook post.
