Killer Bees Sting Six To Death After Bus Fell Into Beehive

Six passengers were killed after being stung to death by bees after their bus crashed on a road in Nicaragua.

According to DailyMail, the bus carrying 60 passengers was making the hour-long journey from Jinotega to San Sebastián de Yalí in Nicaragua on Monday when the vehicle lost control and was thrown into a 160-foot-deep slope where the beehives were located.

The collision caused the bus to smash open several wooden boxes, allowing a swarm of African bees to flee the hives where they were producing honey.

According to officials, the killer bees attacked 45 of the 60 passengers.
