(KNZA)--Funeral arrangements are set for the former Holton resident who died last week from injuries he received as the victim in a Topeka home invasion.
Allen Wichman was 66-years-old when he died Friday at Promise Hospital in Overland Park.
According to The Topeka Capital-Journal, the home invasion happened June 18 at an apartment complex, in Topeka, the city where Wichman had lived for a number of years.
During the home invasion, Wichman suffered life-threatening injuries that later claimed his life.
Arrested in connection with the home invasion, following a standoff with police that same night at another Topeka location, is 31-year-old Howard Dale Burchfiel.
According to his obituary from the Mercer Funeral Home, in Holton, Wichman was a graduate of Holton High School.
Among his survivors is his son, Vance Spiker.
A visitation for Wichman will be held from 12:30 until 2:00 Sunday at the funeral home, with cremation to follow.
