A family in Beeville, Texas was attacked by a massive swarm of bees, making it the most appropriately named town ever.

KIIITV reports that a Beeville man was clearing out brush on Friday morning, when he disrupted hundreds of bees. The bees, in turn, attacked him, his son and his grandson. The eldest of the three is allergic to bees, and 15 firefighters and nine police officers were called to the scene.

Police officials told KIITV that it was the largest swarm of bees they had ever seen.

The grandfather was taken to the hospital, and all three members of the Beeville family are expected to make full recoveries.
