I guess I'd have to call this a "sting" operation.

A sheriff's deputy in North Carolina ended up in a sticky situation after honeybees swarmed his patrol car.

It started before dawn when a truck hauling bees broke down. When the sun came up, the bees became active.

The deputy took refuge in his car and called for backup. He admitted using deadly force when a few bees got inside.

Beekeepers were called in to corral the insects. They sprayed sugar water to get the bees to return to their boxes.
