Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>A family in Mombasa is mourning the death of their kin, an investigations and enforcement officer after he died following an attack by bees.<\/p>\n

A police report filed at Makupa Police Station on Saturday, December 11, indicated that the deceased, John Muthine Mutwiri, was driving his Subaru Forester with two friends when the incident occurred.<\/p>\n

The bees attacked the trio at around 11:45 a.m. at Majengo Red Brick area.<\/p>\n

The three are said to have escaped from the vehicle and ran to different directions but Mutwiri was overwhelmed by the swarm and collapsed.<\/p>\n

“The bees entered the vehicle and they alighted to get safety outside. They all ran to different directions.<\/p>\n

“The said driver was overwhelmed by the bee stings and fell at a nearby garage where through the assistance of the garage owner one Mwaruwa Chikophe. He managed to get a Tuk Tuk and rushed him to (hospital),” read the statement in part.<\/p>\n

The officer was attached to one of the country’s leading agencies where he served as an investigations and enforcement officer.<\/p>\n

Mutwiri was pronounced dead upon arrival at the Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital where he had been taken for treatment.<\/p>\n

Police from Makupa have launched investigations into the incident.<\/p>\n

The body of the deceased was transferred to Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital Mortuary and is awaiting an autopsy exam.<\/p>\n

Danger From Bees<\/b><\/p>\n

According to Healthline, random bee stings are not serious and may cause temporary sharp pain, swelling, redness, warmth, and itching. In cases where victims are allergic to stings or a person is repeatedly stung by many bees, however, the attack can be life-threatening.<\/p>\n

Victims can use home remedies to cure bee stings including baking soda, honey, apple cider vinegar, toothpaste, meat tenderiser as well as herbs and oils to neutralise the venom from the bees.<\/p>\n
