Times said:
A teenager died and more than 20 people were injured when swarms of bees escaped from their hives after the van transporting them crashed into a lorry and overturned on a motorway near the resort of Marmaris, in southern Turkey.

Rescue workers, police, medics and beekeepers tried for more than an hour to release two people trapped inside the vehicle, their faces carpeted with angry bees.

One of the pair, aged 18, died in hospital from the combined effect of injuries sustained in the crash and multiple bee stings.

Three others were in intensive care at the Mugla state hospital. About twenty people needed treatment after they were stung as they tried to help.
As one of the comments says, it's like something out of a movie eek
