A source, who didn't want his name published said that the aged woman went to the back of her family house to use the toilet, when neighbours heard an unusual noise.
According to a witness, who gave his name as Joe, neighbours initially thought the noise came from a bunch of ripe bread fruit tree at the backyard, not knowing it was the beehive on top of the bread fruit tree that had fall down.
"The angry bees, which home had been dislodged, started stinging everybody within the vicinity, including the aged woman’s step-son, who was in the kitchen at the time" Joe said.
He said while the bees were stinging the woman, her step-son made a spirited attempt to pull her away from the scene, but to no avail.
"This did not work as the aged woman was not agile enough to scamper into safety with her step-son. The boy hurriedly left the scene" Joe said.
Meanwhile some youths later mobilised themselves, bought some cans of insecticide, wrapped themselves properly and went after the bees.
"After winning the battle against the bees, the young men rescued the old woman and quickly rushed her to a nearby private hospital, where the medical team did everything possible to save her life. The woman died the next day" Joe said.
