Swarm Of Bees Causes Buzz

A large swarm of bees gathered in an alley in Belmont County Sunday, and it prompted locals nearby to call in an expert.

A woman who lives on Virginia Street told NEWS9 she and a friend noticed the swarm of bees, and they called a beekeeper.

The swarm was so large that they were afraid it would cause issues for locals -- so the bee keeper put out a box to try and trap them.

Other than causing a nuisance, locals said the bees did not cause any other problems.

The woman said the keeper informed folks living in the area that it is the season for bee swarming.
