PHOENIX, Arizona – A large swarm of bees in a southwest Pheonix neighborhood prompted local emergency services to issue an alert warning residents to remain indoors on Saturday.
The bees originated from a hive that had developed in the window sill of a house in the West Valley area of the city. The owner was not home at the time, and a neighbor called emergency services to report the swarming insects.
Firefighters came on scene, slapping at bees as they attempted to destroy the hive with fire-suppressing foam.
