Collection: A beekeeper collects the swarm which forced  the shop in Hereford to close last Sunday

Shopper Jane Thomas, 31, was walking along  with her young daughter when she spotted the bees.
She said: 'I couldn’t believe my eyes when I  saw it, I got us straight over the other side of the street when I realised what  was in front of us.

'I suppose it makes sense that they’d head  for a florist but you don’t expect to see a big swarm of them in the middle of a  high street.'

The bees swarmed into the town centre after  being released from a hive at a nearby museum.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。% i" F. D, @8 U0 A" g

Terrorism kills fewer people in the UK than  bees and wasps, according to a report by the government’s terrorism  watchdog.公仔箱論壇: I; ^0 o8 l" O5 f* |

An annual report by the Independent Reviewer  of Terrorism Legislation acknowledged the threat from Al Qaeda and its  affiliates as a genuine one, but it said the menace of terror had lessened in  recent years and should not be’ overstated’ .tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb3 l3 h9 c" E$ [* l, H1 |) `6 L  d

Arrests connected to alleged terror plots  were at a record low since the 9/11 attacks, with 121 out of a total of 1.4  million arrests in the most recent year.

In a section of the report that considers if  the risk for terrorism is overstated Mr Anderson writes: ‘During the 21st  century, terrorism has been an insignificant cause of mortality in the United  Kingdom.

‘The annualised averge of five deaths caused  by terrorism in England and wales over this peiod compares with total accidental  deaths in 2010 of 17,201.

‘This included 123 cyclist killed in traffic  accidents, 102 personnnel killed in Afghmistan, 29 people drowned in the bath  tub and five people killed by hornets wasps and bees.’
