There is an offense in Florida called felony murder which is distinct from premeditated murder.   782.04 Murder.   (1)(a) The unlawful killing of a human being:   2. When committed by a person engaged in the perpetration of, or in the attempt to perpetrate, any:   d. Robbery   is murder in the first degree and constitutes a capital felony, punishable as provided in s. 775.082.   I do not opine whether this applies to the particular facts in your question. I recommend you should consult with a criminal defense attorney ASAP & not wait to being arrested or having any contact with law enforcement
