Police in Topeka have arrested a man accused of killing his young daughter, whose body was found by first responders called to the family home in January. Police say Jeffrey Exon, 45, was arrested Tuesday afternoon on suspicion of first-degree murder, aggravated endangerment of a child and failure to report the death of a child.
Police and paramedics were called to the home on Jan. 5 for reports of an unresponsive toddler and found Aurora Exon, 2, dead. Paramedics said it appeared the child had been dead for several days, and a medical examiner later determined her death to be a homicide.
