[September 21, 2009]  Late Monday afternoon about 5 p.m. the roads into Beason were closed to traffic including to Beason residents. 

Logan County Sheriff Steve Nichols has confirmed that police are investigating multiple fatalities at a home in Beason.

Reports could not be confirmed but sources near the scene said they were told a shooting and stabbing had occurred in the community. Later unconfirmed reports say that there were multiple victims, possible five, all belonging to one family.

Beason is a small community located nine miles east of Lincoln, one mile south of Route 10. 

From the positioning of police patrol cars, the incident appears to have happened within a short distance of the Beason grain elevator, which is on the Beason Blacktop.

Further information will be posted when it becomes available.
