A deputy spent three hours in his patrol car after nearly 50,000 honeybees decided to park on it.

 

The Wake County Sheriff's Office officer had responded around 9:40 a.m. to a call of a person possibly being attacked by bees.

***The media is really buzzing about this bumbling incident. It's a honey of a story. one of the best hive heard lately. A real humdinger.

However, instead of winging it, they should have swarmed  in with the SWAT team for a sting operation.
