The woman in Hurley attacked by bees, Maureen "Moti" Costello, wanted to expand a bit on the bee attack the other day to warn people about the location, so others aren't harmed.
She also expressed her appreciation for the police officer who aided her and the police chief who sweetly brought her another dog after her dog Snoop died from the bee attack. She also thanked the neighbors who found her dog Snoop "although he was 'completely covered' in the bees. Which is why he died."

On Friday, July 5, 2024, at about 7 p.m., A Hurley Police Department officer responded to an unwanted subject call at 13 Cortez Avenue in Hurley. The responding officer was advised that a woman was reported in the back yard of the residence swimming in caller's kids' pool at the corner of Diaz Street and Chino Blvd. However, according to HPD Chief Chris McGuinness, the officer reported he couldn't get to the woman because of a swarm of bees which were attacking the female and the officer.
According to Chief McGuinness, the female was walking on the sidewalk when the bees attacked and forced her to find refuge in the "kiddie's pool, no more than two inches deep."
