Terror In Dublin As Swarm Of Bees Takes Over City Street

Don't worry, they're gone! A beekeeper in Dublin was the subject of much conversation in the city on Wednesday of this week after a swarm of bees took over an area on North Frederick Street.

According to reports, a member of the Gardaí stood beside the bees until the beekeeper arrived. People around the city took to Twitter and it sounds like it was dealt with pretty efficiently.

There's a swarm of bees on North Frederick St, they're sitting on the footpath, drive carefully some pedestrians are walking onto the road — Live Drive (@LiveDrive) July 1, 2015

A bee keeper has arrived with a hive and what looks like a bongo drum, this is going to be incredible

The bee keeper has no protective gear, and is just scooping up the bees, calm as you like. The bees are not calm, I think it's time to panic — Live Drive (@LiveDrive) July 1, 2015

The bees were safely removed and our favourite pun from the event has to be this one from Twitter user Orlaith Delargy.
