Three Midwestern men who were vacationing in Florida were gunned down by a man named Ahmad Jihad Bojeh on Saturday.
Bojeh was previously arrested and charged with attempted first-degree murder with a firearm, but he was acquitted after an insanity plea, Fox 35 Orlando reported.
The victims, Robert Luis Kraft, 69, his brother, Douglas Joseph Kraft, 68, and their friend James Puchan, 68, were on a guys’ trip attending a car show in Kissimmee over the weekend when Bojeh murdered them.
According to reports, the three men were waiting for help after troubles with a rental car when Ahmad Jihad Bojeh approached them and fatally shot them.
“There were no known interactions between the men and this individual prior to the event; they were then approached and senselessly murdered. This was a random, tragic act,” the Kraft brothers and Puchan’s family said.
“These three wonderful men did not deserve this. Our families are left with an unexpected, unimaginable loss that cannot be put into words,” the family said.
“We ask for privacy, prayers, and respect as we mourn and begin to process this tragedy,” the family said in a joint statement.
Fox News reported:
Ahmad Jihad Bojeh, 29, was arrested in connection with the murders of three men who were staying at a property next door to his home in Kissimmee, Osceola County Sheriff Christopher Blackmon told reporters Sunday.
“It was cold-blooded, it was premeditated, there was absolutely no issues,” Blackmon said. “There was no conflict between these people. This was just random. And this happened to be the person who lived next door.”
Deputies responded around 12:13 p.m. Saturday to a shooting at a subdivision near Kissimmee and discovered the bodies of three adult males in front of the rental home. All three men suffered apparent gunshot wounds.
Blackmon said the three victims were stuck at the rental home after having vehicle trouble and had extended their stay for one day to wait for service.
Two of the victims have been identified as Robert Luis Kraft, 69, of Holland, Michigan, and his brother Douglas Joseph Kraft, 68, of Columbus, Ohio, the sheriff said. The third victim was identified as James Puchan, 68, a friend from Ohio, FOX35 Orlando reported.
