FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - The buzz in Broward County Wednesday was about bees that decided to nest on a private jet.
Firefighters were called to SheltAir in Fort Lauderdale after a worker saw bees, estimated in the thousands, swarming on the left wing of the aircraft.
Rescue crews were asked to foam down the insects.
They say this is the second time in the past few months that they've been called to hose down bees at Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport.
