A 79-year-old man died after White Settlement firefighters were called to a housefire on Wednesday.
Beekeepers use smokers to help keep bee colonies calm during inspections.
"We haven't ruled out the possibility that the man could've been overwhelmed by the bees which could've caused a medical reaction for him to fall or that the man suffered a medical condition which caused him to fall in the beehive area," said Cook. These are questions the fire marshal and the Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office will look to answer in the coming days.
The damage was so severe, authorities couldn't immediately say whether Davis was wearing protective clothing at the time of the fire."The bees were very aggressive, bees swarming police officers and firefighters," said Cook.Authorities called in beekeepers to help relocate the bees, including the queen.
Chief Cook says the investigation will also look at local regulations on backyard bee-keeping operations which are regulated at the state and local levels.It is not immediately clear if the city has regulations pertaining to backyard beekeeping operations.
