Om Brahmbhatt, 23, an Indian student in New Jersey, is charged with three counts of first-degree murder for fatally shooting his maternal grandparents, Dilipkumar and Bindu Brahmbhatt (both 72), and his uncle Yashkumar Brahmbhatt (38). The motive remains unknown. Authorities responded to a South Plainfield condo following a 9 am gunfire report. Om, residing with the victims, was charged with additional weapon-related counts. Relatives in Gujarat reveal Om's recent move to the US for studies, suggesting it was on his grandfather's insistence. Om awaits a pre-trial detention hearing at the Middlesex County Adult Correctional Center.
