The shooting killed three men: brothers Douglas Kraft, 68, of Columbus, and Robert Kraft, 69, of Holland, Michigan, as well as a friend, James John Puchnan, of Columbus.
According to our Florida sister station, WFTV 9, the victims’ families reported the three men leased an Airbnb in Kissimmee to attend the Mecum Car Show with their brothers and longtime friends.
According to authorities, the crime occurred as the victims were waiting for a new rental car after their first vehicle broke down at the end of their trip.
The suspect in the shooting has a history of mental health concerns and was found not guilty by reason of insanity after allegedly firing at automobiles at a Wawa petrol station in 2021, wounding one.
According to court records, Bojeh was ordered to obtain therapy at the Park Place Behavioral Mental Health institution.
According to his case manager, 8 months after being released from jail in 2023, Bojeh attended all of his required appointments, got a job at McDonald’s, and took his meds as prescribed.
According to WFTV 9, Bojeh was ordered by the court not to own or have access to firearms, and he had to live at his parents’ home on Indian Pointe Circle.
