3 men shot, killed in Osceola County; suspect arrested, deputies say
Deputies with the Osceola County Sheriff's Office are investigating after a shooting left three men dead on Saturday, according to officials. Officials were initially notified about a shooting in the Indian Hill Subdivision near Kissimmee around 12:13 p.m., according to a release. Deputies arrived at the location to find three males dead from gunshot wounds in front of the residence, officials said.
Bojeh appeared in court Monday but did not speak and refused to state his name.
Blackmon said the shootings were random and "cold-blooded," adding there was no known conflict between the suspect and the victims, who he said were tourists visiting the area. Investigators said Bojeh lived next door to the rental home where the men were staying.
