It looks like it is killer bee season out in Texas. A swarm of killer bees killed an elderly couple in their ranch in South Texas and injured their 67- year old son. William Steele, 95, and his wife, Myrtle, 92, died after being attacked by the bees at their remote ranch, according to authorities. Their son, Richard, who was also injured, said they had been cleaning their hunting cabin when the bees attacked. The swarm overtook them as they moved a wood stove, which exposed a hive; William tried to run away but the stings he suffered from the swarm killed him. The bees were likely Africanized honey bees, better known as “killer bees.” Click the image to enlarge.
