Five people were shot to death on Wednesday inside a SunTrust retail bank during a hostage situation that apparently went awry, police have confirmed.
The tragedy occurred in Sebring, Florida, where the population was 10,491 in the 2010 US Census.
The Highlands County Sheriff’s Office said a SWAT team engulfed the bank after failed negotiations with the suspect, who “eventually surrendered” and is now in police custody.
