Koh Andet, Cambodia, July 21, 2020 (Pictures)??????????????A six-year-old boy was stung to death by hundreds of wasps while helping his grandmother in the garden. Mon Kakada was being cared for by his relative Jen Oeun, 62, while she pruned trees at the back of her house in Poun Village, Koh Andet district, Cambodia. The old woman began cutting branches when she accidentally disturbed a banded hornet's nest on July 21 morning. Horrified neighbours heard the boy screaming as the deadly creatures swarmed around him, plunging their venomous barbs into his body. Residents rushed to help the pair but the boy died only a few minutes later while he was being carried away by his grandmother. She was also stung several times while batting away the wasps and was taken to hospital in nearby Kirivong district. Police said that the grandmother suffered from a loss of vision following the hornet attack and was being kept in the ward. The boy's funeral was held at the family's wooden home. Pictures show how his torso was covered in stings.
