Giant Hornets Defeat Japanese Police Officers

A group of Japanese police officers stumbled upon a giant hornets’ nest at a park in Machida yesterday morning:
There were conducting a search for a missing person, but ended up finding a lot of angry hornets instead. Eight officers were stung; some had to go to the hospital, but nobody sustained life-threatening injuries. The area of the park was cordoned off, and apparently an exterminator will destroy the hornets today.
While we’re on the topic of police battling scary giant hornets, here’s a special news report about a retired cop in Nagoya who recently started working as an exterminator:
