Three tourists shot dead at their Florida vacation rental
Florida police have charged a man after three tourists were killed in an apparent random shooting outside their vacation rental property.
Osceola County Sheriff Chris Blackmon said the shooting happened at the weekend at the Indian Point subdivision close to Kissimmee, Florida.
The three men were found shot in front of the home.
“We lost three people, which is sad because it’s three tourists that come here to visit our area,” Blackmon said.
“There was no conflict between these people. This was random, and this happened to be the person that lived next door.”
Next door neighbor Ahmad Jihad Bojeh, 29 was arrested and charged with triple homicide.
The three men were named as brothers Robert Luis Kraft and Douglas Joseph Kraft, and their friend James Puchan, 69.
They were originally part of a group of four staying there but the three extended their stay due to an issue with their car, according to the police.
