Five injured and one dead in a bee attack

Six people were attacked by a bee swarm in Arizona, United States, and one died of his injuries.

The dead man was among a group of three people who have “received a hundred stings” by bees in Marana, the Northwest Fire Department said, reported by CNN.

The other two people received medical treatment. The street in which the attack took place was completely closed for prevention for several hours.

Three firefighters intervened, one of whom was himself injured and was taken to hospital.

A response team destroyed the beehive, which weighed about 100 pounds (45 kg), and killed most of the bees.
