A man in Cervera, Spain was pulled over after being seen driving erratically while not wearing a seatbelt. He was, as you might expect, uncooperative — he argued with the cops, refused a breathalyzer and threatened everyone he could.

Despite this, the cops persisted. To the man, this meant that if he wanted the cops to leave, he’d have to think smarter, faster and harder. That, or he could just use his bees.

Unsurprisingly, he opted for the latter, opening the rear of his truck to unleash a swarm of bees on the officers trying to arrest him. Both cops were repeatedly stung and fled the scene, while the man ditched his van and made an escape. Fortunately, he was caught soon after and arrested.

So if you’re thinking of investing in a guard dog, why not go for guard bees instead? They’re clearly pretty effective — and hey, free honey!
