1 Dead In Zion Home Invasion

ZION, IL – A 36-year-old Zion woman died after being shot in a home invasion Friday, authorities said Sunday. Kaleah Beville was among three adults gunned down after several people forced their way into a home at 2816 Edina Boulevard in Zion at 1:41 p.m. Friday. Beville was taken by helicopter to Condell Medical Center in Libertyville where she later died, according to news releases from the Lake County Coroner's Office and the Zion Police Department.

Authorities also found a man and woman, who have not been identified and were between the ages of 24 and 43 years old, inside the Zion home with gunshot wounds. They were taken by ambulance to Condell Medical Center in Libertyville.

A preliminary investigation revealed the home invasion was a "targeted incident," according to a news release from the Zion Police Department. Police said there appeared to be no threat to the general public.

Preliminary results from an autopsy performed on Beville found she died from injuries sustained from multiple gunshot wounds, according to a coroner's office news release. Toxicology results are pending.

“Ms. Beville’s family has been notified and our deepest condolences go out to them. This is truly an awful tragedy,” Lake County Coroner Howard Cooper said.

The Lake County Major Crime Task Force and members of the Zion Police Department are investigating the home invasion. Anyone with information about this investigation is asked to call the Zion Police Department at (847) 872-8000.
