7 held in slaying of Florida couple

Somehow, authorities say, they ended up part of a loosely connected group of seven charged in the shooting deaths of Byrd and Melanie Billings, a wealthy Florida Panhandle couple known for adopting children with special needs.

Police say that the suspects, some dressed as ninjas, stole a safe and other items during the break-in Thursday at the Billingses' sprawling home west of Pensacola.
