GoFundMe set up for man killed in house fire

A GoFundMe has been set up to pay funeral costs and other expenses for the man who was killed in a house fire last month in Columbia County.

Edmund Metz died in his home at the corner of Cold Spring Road and Route 9 in Livingston. It happened around 1:15 p.m. on June 7.

Metz’s 15-year-old daughter is accused of intentionally starting the fire. She has been charged with murder and arson. NewsChannel 13 is not releasing her name because of her age.

The fundraiser has collected $675 toward a $10,000 goal as of Friday afternoon.
