4 year old dies following attack by killer bees

Two young boys were stung by killer bees today in Little Belize up north. The siblings, four year old Pedro and five year old Enrique Thiessen, were playing under a tree when they were attacked by the bees. They were rushed to the Northern Regional hospital, but the four year old, who was stung to the face and head, did not survive the attack. Family members who attempted to rescue the boys were also bitten. We’ll have more on this story in Tuesday’s newscast.

    What a sad story. My prayers for the soul of the poor child who died, and for the recovery of his stricken brother. Also for the family, it’s hard to imagine how the parents must feel.
