A 23-year-old British woman, Lucy Harrison, is reported to have been shot dead by her father in Texas. Her family in the UK says they are seeking help with the pursuit of justice, after Cheshire Police declines to take action.

According to the reports, the father is described as facing no charges at the time of publication, with Cheshire Police rejecting the family’s plea. The Mirror and Manchester Evening News both describe the family’s efforts to obtain support and new material relevant to their case.

The Daily Mail reports that UK police tell the woman’s mother they have “no authority to intervene” in her fight for justice, and it highlights the reported lack of UK police powers rather than focusing on steps toward evidence gathering. Across outlets, the core account is consistent: a British woman is killed by her father in Texas, the family pursues justice, and UK police do not intervene in the way requested.
