http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/oct/04/killer-hornets-chinese-city-living-in-fear Yu, a square-jawed 40-year-old farmer in perfect health, had been harvesting his crops when he stepped on a nest of vespa mandarinia hornets concealed beneath a pile of dry corn husks. The hornets swarmed Yu, stinging him through his long-sleeve shirt and trousers. He ran, but the hornets chased him, stinging his arms and legs, his head and neck. After Yu succumbed to his wounds and about 50 of his friends and relatives gathered to mourn his passing.

Yu’s wife and two children sat inside weeping.
