About 1 million bees were released onto a Florida highway early Tuesday morning when the truck hauling the insects was involved in a crash.
The Florida Highway Patrol said a big rig crashed into a truck carrying a load of bees on U.S. Highway 301, in the Baldwin area, around 3:15 a.m. Tuesday.
The FHP said the truck was carrying about one million bees, which were released onto the roadway as a result of the crash.
The highway was partially closed and beekeepers were summoned to the scene to collect the insects. The bees had been collected by 7:30 a.m., the FHP said.
No one was injured in the crash, troopers said.
