Deputies found the bodies of two people, including that of a woman reported missing by her family Friday morning, inside a car at a Kissimmee shopping plaza Friday afternoon, an Osceola County Sheriff’s Office spokesman said.

Maj. Jacob Ruiz said 40-year-old Giomary Bengochea’s family reported her missing from her home on the 1100 block of Lavaur Court in Poinciana Friday morning.

OCSO’s investigat­ion led deputies to find Bengochea’s car parked near the Shops at Kissimmee Plaza off South John Young Parkway around noon, Ruiz said.

Bengochea and her boyfriend, 51-year-old Victor Hernandez of Kissimmee, were found dead inside the car. Investigat­ors are working to determine how the couple died. Ruiz said the circumstan­ces surroundin­g their deaths are suspicious, but the incident is isolated and OCSO is not looking for additional suspects.
