DEMING, N.M. (AP) - A New Mexico family is recovering from a bee attack where one woman suffered more than a thousand bee stings.
The Deming Headlight reports (https://bit.ly/2eKOhHd ) 85-year-old Angela Ortiz was attacked by a colony of bees last Friday as she was outside a trailer home. A Luna County Sheriff’s Office report says a deputy and family members were also attacked by the bees as they helped Ortiz. Authorities were able to rescue the family by using a fire extinguisher.
The Luna County Sheriff’s Office says Ortiz had not noticed the bees that lived in a hive under the home. She was taken to a Las Cruces hospital where she currently is recovering.
