(AP) — A Missouri resident whose daughter was among three people found shot to death this month in a Topeka home says he’s destitute after losing all of his belongings in a fire while he was looking for her killer.

Paul Lee of Springfield, Mo., says he can’t afford to pay a funeral home and is asking for the public’s help in handling his daughter’s funeral arrangements.

The bodies of Tamesha Lee and two others were found in a home Dec. 1, two hours after a different woman was found grievously wounded behind a strip mall. That woman died two days later.

Lee is staying with family members in Topeka and going door-to-door looking for information about his daughter’s death.
