More than One thousand Bees, attacked Dis face. See photos

A GROUP of naughty kids thought they had found the
perfect target to throw stones at.

But little did they know that they were messing
around with a swarm of angry bees!

The kids, between the ages of six and seven, started
throwing stones at bees sheltering in a disused tyre
in their yard but their game has put the life of their
gogo in danger.

The gogo, in her 70s, was rushed to
hospital in a
critical condition after she was stung by bees in
Doonside in Amanzimtoti, south of Durban on
Saturday. She was walking past while her
grandchildren were throwing stones at the bees.


Netcare 911’s Chris Botha said: “The gogo literally
sustained thousands of bee stings.”
He said the gogo’s grandson, who is in his 20s, tried
to save her but he was also stung.

“We moved the patients to a safe area while firemen
kept a fine spray on us to calm the bees,” said Botha.
“The paramedics worked very hard to stabilise the
patients, who were in a critical condition, before they
were transported to Prince Mshiyeni Memorial
Hospital in Umlazi.”

Botha couldn’t reveal the identities of the gogo or
her grandson because patients’ details are
confidential.

Netcare 911 said bees become very active in
summer and warned:
Avoid bee hives, bees attack when they are
disturbed.

If attacked by a swarm, run and seek shelter
indoors.

Do not pull stings out as it will put pressure on the
poison sack, resulting in more toxins entering the
body. Gently scrape the sting out using a sharp
object.

If you are allergic to bee stings, always carry an
adrenalin injection.
