Swarming Bees In Vacant Foreclosure Terrorize Tucson Neighborhood; Family Pet Succumbs To Injuries From 250 Stings

In Tucson, Arizona, KOLD-TV News Channel 13 reports:

  • In one local Tucson neighborhood when the humans moved out, the bees moved in. These pests have become well established and are creating serious problems for the neighborhood. The owners walked away from their house a year ago. The bees are now terrorizing the entire area. The residents in the neighborhood say they feel helpless; they believe the homeowners association has just made it worse.

  • Brandi Comeau was hit extra hard by the bees infesting her neighborhood, "my dog Stubby was here by the door covered in bees and being attacked. He died last night at 10:30 p.m. with over 250 stings."
