DOUGLAS, Ariz. — Thousands of swarming bees have left one landscaper dead and another critically injured after the men were stung.

Douglas Fire Department officials say the landscapers were working on a home around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday when they were attacked by the huge swarm of bees. One man later died at a hospital.

The names of the victims weren’t immediately released.

A hive was found inside the home’s attic and a beekeeper later exterminated it after parts of the roof of the home were torn off.
