The family of an off-duty police officer killed while using an ATM in Florida is suing Bank of America, claiming negligence.
Alfred Gordon's estate says the Charlotte-based bank failed to provide proper security at its outdoor, 24-hour automated teller in Orlando. A Bank of America spokesman declined comment, saying the company doesn't discuss pending litigation.
Also accused is the company that owns the bank land. Gordon's family says there were no security guards, proper lighting or cameras.
Two teenagers were indicted on murder charges in October, days after Gordon was killed.

Why use an outside ATM at night, alone w/o any security? There are plenty of ATM's available inside almost every local service station or hotel.

SUE! this is like a easy ride for money. SORRY FOR HER/THIER LOST! suing the bank for negligences. Why was he at the teller/bank? I can not see a lawsuit in this case. If he would've had a heart attack and no one found him in time (at the same teller) is that negligences? SUE THE TEENS WHO PULL THE TRIGGER! Each time I play the lottery and lose I want to go off, but not sue.
