Florida: Muslim who murdered three men at random shot at people at random before, was found to be ‘mentally ill’

Jan 21, 2026 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer1 Comment

In Europe, mental illness is the default explanation for jihad activity. Authorities don’t want to admit that such a thing as jihad exists, so they have to classify jihadis as something else. Ahmad Jihad Bojeh looks as if he has been intent on killing people at random for quite some time. Where did he get this idea? Might it have something to do with the repeated calls from ISIS and al-Qaeda to murder random Americans and Europeans? Authorities are virtually certain not to investigate that possibility.

An update on this story. 

Florida madman stalked tourists near Disney before allegedly killing them in random attack: family

by Sarah Rumpf-Whitten, Fox News, January 20, 2026:

Three men who were waiting for assistance after car trouble were stalked from a distance before they were allegedly gunned down by a “frequent flyer” with the criminal justice system in Florida, the victims’ families said.

According to a joint statement from their families shared with Fox News Digital, the men had traveled to Central Florida to attend the Mecum Car Show, the world’s largest collector car auction, and were staying at an Airbnb. The families said that the suspect eyed the victims at a distance before they were shot and killed.

“There were no known interactions between the men and this individual prior to the event; they were then approached and senselessly murdered,” the family said. “This was a random, tragic act.”

The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office responded to multiple 911 calls reporting shots fired at 12:14 p.m. Saturday in the Indian Point subdivision. When deputies arrived, they discovered three men dead in front of the residence, all suffering from fatal gunshot wounds.

The victims were identified as Robert Luis Kraft, 70, of Holland, Michigan; his brother Douglas Joseph Kraft, 68, of Columbus, Ohio; and James John Puchan, 69, also of Columbus.

The men, according to the family statement, were preparing to travel home on Saturday but were forced to extend their stay due to rental car trouble. The “random” shooting happened as they were standing outside the residence waiting for a replacement rental car to arrive.

The suspect was identified as 29-year-old Ahmad Jihad Bojeh, who lived next door to the rental property.

According to the sheriff’s department, authorities observed Bojeh flee to his residence shortly after the shooting, where he was later detained and found with two firearms. He has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder.

Bojeh had multiple prior encounters with the criminal justice system before Saturday’s deadly shooting, including a 2021 case in which he was charged with attempted first-degree murder with a firearm and aggravated battery after allegedly shooting at a person and random vehicles in a Kissimmee gas station parking lot.

Court records obtained by Fox News Digital show Bojeh was later found not guilty by reason of insanity in that case.

Additional records show Bojeh had prior arrests for felony drug possession and misdemeanor resisting an officer without violence, reflecting years of repeated contact with law enforcement.

Was it the drugs that caused his mental illness, or the Quran?

Nigeria: Muslims kidnap 177 Christians from churches during Sunday services

“As for the captives, the amir [ruler] has the choice of taking the most beneficial action of four possibilities: the first to put them to death by cutting their necks; the second, to enslave them and apply the laws of slavery regarding their sale and manumission; the third, to ransom them in exchange for goods or prisoners; and fourth, to show favor to them and pardon them. Allah, may he be exalted, says, ‘When you encounter those [infidels] who deny [the Truth=Islam] then strike [their] necks’ (Qur’an sura 47, verse 4)” — Al-Mawardi, al-Ahkam as-Sultaniyyah (The Laws of Islamic Governance).

...177 abducted Christian worshippers in Kaduna

News Express, January 21, 2026:

The identities of the 177 persons kidnapped from ECWA Church and Cherubim and Seraphim Churches 1 and 2 at Kurmin Wali community in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State on Sunday have been revealed.

The list paints a harrowing picture of entire families taken away from their homes and places of worship, leaving the community traumatised and virtually empty of able-bodied residents.

The raid came barely a week after the same community paid N2.6 million ransom to secure the release of 20 residents previously abducted, Vanguard reliably gathered.

While government and security operatives denied the incident, a Police situation report obtained by Vanguard confirmed the attack occurred during church services.

The report stated that information was received at about 5:45pm, on Sunday, indicating that the assailants struck around 11:25am, firing sporadically and forcing worshippers to flee into the surrounding forest.

The situation report read: “Message received from DPO Kajuru indicates that on 18/01/2026 at about 1745hrs an information was received that same date at about 1125hrs, unspecified numbers of bandits armed with sophisticated weapons attacked ECWA church and Cherubim Serafim Church 2 at Kurmin Wali in Kajuru lga, The communities are yet to ascertain the number of worshipers kidnapped to unknown destination, the village is situated in a remote forest area, the DPO mobilized other sister security agencies and the military to the scene which cannot be accessed immediately due to bad road, concerted effort in collaboration with all stakeholders has been intensified to rescue the victims and possibly arrest the perpetrators, investigation has commenced”.

As of yesterday, the village was deserted. Those who escaped had fled to nearby communities to stay with relatives and friends.

Some who sustained injuries during the escape were reportedly still in shock, while poor network coverage and lost phones made it difficult to reach them for comment….

Nigeria: Gunmen kidnap more than 160 in church attack

DW, January 19, 2026:

A leader at Nigeria’s Christian Association said that 163 worshippers were kidnapped during Sunday services from two churches Kaduna state.

“The attackers came in numbers and blocked the entrance of the churches and forced the worshippers out into the bush,” Reverend Joseph Hayab, head of the Christian Association of Nigeria for the country’s north, said on Monday.

“The actual number they took was 172 but nine escaped, so 163 are with them,” he said.

A politician representing the area at state parliament, Usman Danlami Stingo, on Monday talked of three separate attacks during Sunday church services. He put the number of abducted at 168, according to the Associated Press.

A police ‌spokesperson told Reuters news agency that gunmen with “sophisticated weapons” attacked the two churches, but that police were still trying to confirm the number taken.

The attacks occurred in the village of Kurmin Wali, a largely Christian forest community. It is remote and difficult to reach due to bad roads, the police spokesperson said.

Police said troops and ⁠other security agencies had been deployed to the area and that efforts were under way to track the ‌abductors and rescue ‌the captives….

Military Madness > Suddenly, Europe wants to talk to Putin!!

 

The EU has made a huge about-turn on Russia – did you notice?

Macron, Meloni, and Merz have all seemingly realized that they’ll have to talk to Putin sooner or later

Western European leaders who have spent the last four years flooding Ukraine with every tank, shell, and missile they could get their hands on came out this week in favor of diplomacy and peaceful coexistence with Russia. Was this week a turning point, or just a brief moment of sobriety on the continent?

What did Macron say?

READ MORE: G7 should not be an anti-BRICS group – Macron

French President Emmanuel Macron led the charge, declaring last month that “it’s in our interest as Europeans and Ukrainians to find the right framework to re-engage” with Moscow. Europeans, he added, should do so “in coming weeks.”

Macron spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin several times by phone in the weeks before Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine began in 2022. Contact resumed with a phone call last July, although both leaders simply reiterated their opposing views: Macron urging Putin to accept a ceasefire in Ukraine, and Putin – who views a ceasefire as a ruse to rearm and refit the Ukrainian military – insisting that any settlement must be “comprehensive and long-term, and provide for the elimination of the root causes of the Ukraine crisis.”

Does Meloni agree?

READ MORE: Time for EU to talk to Russia – Meloni

“I think Macron is right on this. I believe the time has come for Europe to also speak with Russia,” Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said last Friday. “Because if Europe decides to take part in this phase of negotiations by talking only to one of the two sides, I fear that in the end the positive contribution it can make will be limited.”

Although an outspoken supporter of Ukraine, Meloni heads a coalition government that includes Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini’s Lega party. Salvini has long called for talks with Putin, arguing last month that “if Hitler and Napoleon failed with their campaigns to bring Moscow to its knees,” so too would Ukraine and the EU.

Merz joins the chorus

 Germany’s Merz changes stance on Russia

Two days after declaring that Germany “will accept responsibility for the security of Ukraine,” Chancellor Friedrich Merz came out last week and said that “the whole thing,” meaning a peace agreement in Ukraine, “just doesn’t work without Russia’s consent.”

Good grief! He's just figuring that out now? OMG!

Then on Wednesday, Merz told an economic conference that the EU should “find a balance again with our largest European neighbor,” and that “if there is peace… then we can look ahead with great confidence beyond the year 2026.”

This is the same Friedrich Merz who pushed all last year for the confiscation of Russia’s frozen sovereign assets, and boasted of providing Ukraine with “long-range fire” systems.

Why are the Europeans changing their position now?

 EU admits it will have to talk with Putin

Macron and Meloni have both pushed the EU to appoint an envoy to negotiate directly with Putin. Although EU officials have not revealed whether they plan to appoint such a figure, European Commission spokeswoman Paula Pinho stated on Monday that “obviously, at some point, there will have to be talks also with President Putin.”

What European leaders truly fear, Politico reported on Wednesday, is getting left on the sidelines while US President Donald Trump and his envoy, Steve Witkoff, forge ahead and strike a deal with Russia without their involvement.

Macron has confirmed this. If Europe doesn’t secure a place at the table, “we will be talking amongst ourselves” while the Americans “will then go alone to talk with the Russians,” Macron told Le Figaro last month. Meloni noted this week that there are currently “too many voices” speaking for Europe, arguing that a single point of contact would simplify talks with Russia.

What do the Russians think?

 Why are EU leaders suddenly being nice to Russia?

Moscow welcomes the “positive shift” in statements from Europe, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Friday. 

“Surprising as it may seem,” the views expressed in the statements are “entirely consistent” with Moscow’s perspective, he said, pointing out that the Europeans previously issued “utopian statements” calling for “a crushing defeat of Russia.”

If the latest remarks “truly reflect the strategic vision of the Europeans, then it represents a positive evolution in their position,” he added.

Speaking as he received newly appointed foreign ambassadors at the Kremlin on Thursday, Putin said that Russia “is ready to restore the level of relations we require” with Europe. 

“One would like to believe that, over time, the situation will nonetheless change, and our states will return to normal, constructive dialogue,” he said, cautioning that this would only happen when “respect for [Russia’s] national interests and consideration of legitimate security concerns” are met.

A 19-year-old Canadian woman found dead on a popular Australian tourist island off the coast of Queensland on Monday was discovered surrounded by a pack of dingoes, say local police.

The woman was found on K’gari (formerly known as Fraser Island) at about 6.35 a.m. local time. Police were called to the beach, north of the Maheno Shipwreck, to reports of an unresponsive woman, Queensland authorities said in a statement.

Initial information indicated that the woman may have gone swimming around 5 a.m., the statement said.

The woman, who has not been named, had been working for six weeks at a hostel on the island, police Insp. Paul Algie told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), and had informed colleagues that she was going for a swim about 75 minutes before her body was discovered.

Her next known sighting was between 6 a.m and 6:15 a.m. on the beach, when two male witnesses saw a large pack of dingoes.

Algie told ABC that the dingoes were seen near the woman’s body. He later added that the wild dogs had been in contact with the woman’s body.

“I can confirm that the woman’s body had been touched and interfered with by the dingoes, but we are not speculating yet as to whether that was anything to do with her cause of death,” Algie stated.

The woman’s body has since been taken to mainland Australia, and her family is being contacted, the Australian outlet said.

Police took statements from people who knew the woman’s movements to try to establish what occurred between 5 a.m. and 6:15 a.m., Algie told reporters, according to the Guardian.

“There was an hour, to an hour and 15 minutes, that police are currently piecing together as a part of their investigations,” he said.

“It was obviously a very traumatic and horrific scene for them to uncover.”

The police officer said authorities were awaiting a postmortem, scheduled for Wednesday, before providing further information.

“At this stage, it’s too early to speculate on the cause of death — we simply can’t confirm whether this young lady drowned, or died as a result of being attacked by dingoes,” he said.

Dingoes are native to K’gari and are protected there. The island is a wilderness area, and dingoes are culturally significant to local First Nations people and the wider community.

Global Affairs Canada confirmed that a Canadian citizen died in Australia, but did not provide any further details for privacy reasons.

12-year-old boy in critical condition following shark attack off Sydney

By Darryl Coote

   

Jan. 19 (UPI) -- A 12-year-old boy was in critical condition following a shark attack off Sydney's coast, authorities said.

Emergency services were called to Hermitage Foreshore Walk near Shark Beach at about 4:20 p.m. local time Sunday in response to reports that a boy had been bitten by a shark, the New South Wales Police Force said in a statement.

The boy was rescued from the ocean by Marine Area Command and Eastern Suburbs Police. Two medical tourniquets were used on the boy as they applied first aid for what police called serious leg injuries before he was transported to Children's Hospital in Randwick in critical condition.

"The injuries are consistent with what is believed to have been a large shark," police said.

In an update Monday, Superintendent Joseph McNulty, commander of the NSW Police Marine Area Command, told reporters that the boy was "fighting for his life."

"It was a horrendous scene at the time when police attended," he said.

"We believe it was something like a bull shark that attacked the lower limbs of that boy yesterday."

According to McNulty, the boy and his friends were leaping off a 20-foot rock into the water, which was made brackish by recent heavy rain, when the shark attacked.

"We believe the combination of the brackish water, the fresh water, the actions of the splashing may have made that perfect storm environment for that shark attack," he said.

According to Taronga Conservation Society Australia, the Oceanic nation sees an average of 20 so shark incidents resulting in people injured a year.
