Sebring, Fla. • A gunman who took over a SunTrust Bank branch in Florida apparently made the five women inside lie down on the lobby floor before shooting them in the backs of their heads, police said Thursday.

Sebring police Chief Karl Hoglund said there's no indication Zephen Xaver intended to rob the bank, and no apparent connection among him, the bank or the victims.
