American killed by 60 thousand bees

A 70-year-old American was killed by 60,000 “extremely aggressive” bees while mowing the lawn in Texas. The wife was hospitalized after trying to save him.

The British newspaper “Daily Mail” said that Thomas Hicks was mowing the lawn when the bees attacked him.

Thomas went into a heart attack after being stung by harsh bees, and his wife, Zoni, was subjected to several stings, and she was taken out of the house after firefighters put their equipment on her to protect her from other bee stings, and she was taken to hospital.

The attack took place at a house near Hubbard Creek Lake in Stephens County, Texas, where the Breckenridge Fire Department was dispatched to the scene.

Thomas was mowing his lawn in the afternoon, and it was perhaps the noise that caused the killer bees to roar terribly.

His wife, Zoni, said she went to buy groceries before her husband was attacked by bees.

She added, “I told him, dear, please don’t go back to the back, because the bees came back there, and he said, ‘I won’t, I promise.”

When Zuni returned home, she quickly discovered that her husband was jumping and screaming covered in bees, and she said, “I mean, you could not even see his back and his entire head was covered with killer bees.”

The wife called the emergency room and performed CPR for her husband before the emergency personnel came, so that Thomas was later confirmed dead.
