DOUGLAS, Ariz. (AP) -- One landscaper is dead and another critically injured after the men were stung by swarming bees in southern Arizona.
Douglas Fire Department officials say the incident occurred around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday as the landscapers were working on a home.
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.
Authorities say there were thousands of bees in the swarm that attacked the two men.
