| Swarms of bees were buzzing around a Pennsylvania Turnpike Interchange this morning and into the afternoon causing quite a ruckus. The honey bees swarmed the light fixtures near Lane 9 at the Valley Forge interchange Exit 328 in King of Prussia. Authorities were forced to redirect traffic and change those cash tolls to EZ-Pass only. If the honey bees continue to cause a disturbance they will be removed and relocated. As a protected 'pollinator' species, they cannot just be killed.Read More |
