A Florida man is accused of shooting and killing three tourists stranded at a rental home on Saturday in what a sheriff described as a “horrific and senseless” act of violence.

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.

Deputies found Bojeh inside his home next door about an hour later, the sheriff said. Bojeh was arrested on three counts of premeditated murder and one count of resisting arrest without violence, according to online jail records.

Blackmon described Bojeh as a “frequent flier to the sheriff’s office.”

“I can tell you he was a threat to that neighborhood all the time,” Blackmon said.

Bojeh was arrested in 2021 after being accused of shooting at a person and random cars in a Kissimmee gas station parking lot, though court records show he was later “acquitted by reason of insanity,” according to court records obtained by WKMG-TV.

Bojeh was booked into the Osceola County Jail for the alleged triple murder and was held without bond.

The sheriff said the murder investigation is ongoing.

Four people were hospitalized after a shooting Monday afternoon that investigators believe stemmed from an attempted online marketplace transaction, according to the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies responded around 1:15 p.m. to the 3600 block of Avenue R in Fort Pierce, where they found multiple people wounded, the sheriff’s office said. Patrol deputies secured the area, provided aid and coordinated with St. Lucie County Fire Rescue to get the victims to a local hospital.

Preliminary information and witness accounts suggest one person arrived at the location intending to complete an online marketplace transaction with another individual. When the potential buyer got out of the vehicle, three suspects allegedly ambushed the individual and opened fire, investigators said.

Four people have been identified as victims of gunshot wounds. Detectives believe a fifth person may have been involved and are working to identify and locate that individual.

The sheriff’s office said the information released so far is preliminary and may change as investigators confirm details and develop new leads.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Snow…really? It may sound hard to believe, but it’s looking more likely that parts of the Florida Panhandle could see snow early Sunday morning.

A strong Arctic cold front pushing through the state, combined with an area of low pressure, is creating the right setup for wintry weather near the Florida–Georgia line.

Temperatures will be cold enough for snow, and places like Milton and Pensacola could see around 1–2 inches, with a few spots possibly picking up a little more.

This is happening right around the same time as last year’s historic snowstorm. On Jan. 21–22, 2025, a powerful winter system moved through the South and brought record-breaking snow to the western Panhandle. Pensacola measured 7.6 inches, while Milton saw an incredible 9–10 inches, the heaviest snowfall ever recorded in Florida.

While snow in Florida is rare, it has happened before. A light dusting fell across parts of North Florida in Jan. 2018, a notable storm reached areas like Ocala and The Villages in 1989, and an extreme cold wave in 1977 even brought snow to Tallahassee and parts of South Florida.
