Man Attacked By Bees Worries About Another Strike

Compiled From Staff Reports
WHITE SETTLEMENT (CBS 11 / TXA 21) ― A cluster of bees and a crumbled honey comb are the only remains of a bee attack on Kimbrough Street in White Settlement.

Cecil Campbell said he was stung about 80 times by a swarm of aggressive bees that were living in the walls of an empty house next door.

He said he was mowing his neighbor's backyard as a favor when the rumbling of the mower riled up the hive. The swarm sank their stingers all over Campbell's body and face.

"I fell out in the street, trying to get away from them," he said.

Local pest control crews wiped out what they could, removing ten honeycombs and about 10,000 bees. But Campbell fears that more bees could still be hiding out in the home.

"I'm concerned for the children in the area and we have quite a few elderly," said Campbell.
