AUSTIN, Texas — For the second time in two days, bees have sent a man to the hospital.
On Thursday bees stung a man who crashed his truck into a house in Pflugerville. He was taken to Seton Medical Center Williamson with about 100 stings.
On Wednesday in Pflugerville, bees from a large hive inside an old filing cabinet attacked four people, sending one to the hospital in critical condition. He was stung about 300 times.
“When firefighters got here, he was on the ground, basically had bees all covered onto him. So they began swiping the bees off of him, got the hoses on the ground and started spraying him,” Battalion Chief Nick Perkins with the Pflugerville Fire Department said of Wednesday’s attack.
