The Washington state father is being asked to kill him after three young daughters were reported missing and dead.
Police on Tuesday sought help in finding the father of the girl’s father, Travis Decker.
The released police news pointed out that it is unclear whether Decker, a former military man, is armed.

On Friday, the mother of the 9-, 8- and 5-year-old girls reported to police that their father did not return them after a scheduled visit, police said.
Over the weekend, police searched for the kids and Decker. The children were thought to live from a white 2017 GMC Sierra pickup truck with a Washington plate.
Decker’s vacant truck is located near the campground on Monday, police said. During the search, officers found the bodies of three girls.
The search for Decker has begun.
Anyone who has seen Decker since Friday or knows where he is will be asked to call 911.
“We are not trying to contact or approach Decker due to safety concerns,” police said.
The Wenatchee School District said the girls were students at Lincoln Elementary School. Counseling services are available to children and staff who need help.
“To allow the space and privacy needed for students, staff and families to start healing and healing, we ask with respect so that you do not come to school campus except for regular school businesses,” the district said.
