Man dies after Arizona bee attack, 2 others injured: "WILHOIT, AZ - A 69-year-old man died following a bee attack in Arizona on Thursday.
The Yavapai County Sheriff's Office says Walter Coughran, a resident of Kirkland, collapsed on a neighbor's porch after running there for help.
YCSO deputies responded to the incident in the 8300 block of Carnaby Lane, where Southern Yavapai Fire District were in the process of treating three bee sting victims.
A second victim, 48 years old, was transported to the Yavapai Regional Medical Center while the third victim was treated on the scene and released.
Preliminary information released by YCSO indicates the attack happened while the victims, who don't live at the residence, were working on the house. The homeowner was not present.
The cause of Coughran's death is not known at this time, as a medical examiner has yet to determine if the bee stings were a factor or there was a pre-existing medical condition.
The bee hive had been located near a dog house at the residence, and was likely known to have been there by the victims and homeowner, according to YCSO."
