WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Firefighters had an added challenge while battling a blaze at a vacant West Palm Beach home Wednesday — they also had to fend off thousands of Africanized killer bees.
Shortly after 11 a.m., the vacant home on Seventh Street erupted in smoke, but it was no ordinary fire.
When firefighters chopped down the front door, thousands of Africanized bees poured out of the still-smoldering house.
