JUDY WOODRUFF, CNN ANCHOR: Now, we want to tell you about a story just in. And we're quoting the Associated Press here, the dateline Havana.

Five members of one family, including a couple visiting from south Florida, were killed in their car by attackers in central Cuba. This according to Cuban government sources. The information is still very sketchy at this point. But a man answering the telephone at the forensic services office in the central province of Matanzas confirmed that the five had been killed.

Once again, five members of one family, including a couple, presumably Americans, visiting from south Florida, killed in their car while visiting Cuba. We'll bring you any more information we can get when we have it.
