		</div><p>Police in Canada on Wednesday warned drivers to keep their car windows closed after a lorry spilled crates carrying five million bees on to a road.</p>
<p>Halton Regional Police said they received a call at about 6.15am reporting the bee crates had come loose from a lorry and spilled on to Guelph Line, Ontario, just west of Toronto.</p>
<p>It was “quite the scene”, constable Ryan Anderson said.</p>
<p>“Crates were literally on the road and swarms of bees were flying around,” he said. “The initial beekeeper that was on scene was apparently stung a few times.”</p>
<p>The scene prompted police to warn drivers to close their windows as they passed and for pedestrians to avoid the area.</p>
<p>About an hour after police put out a notice on social media, several beekeepers were in touch with police offering to help.</p>
<p>Six or seven beekeepers eventually arrived at the scene, Mr Anderson said.</p>
<p>By about 9.15am, police said most of the five million bees had been safely collected and the crates were being hauled away.</p>
<p>Some crates had been left behind for the uncollected bees to return to them on their own.</p>
<p>A colony of honeybees in summer has about 50,000 to 80,000 bees, according to the Canadian Honey Council, a national association of beekeepers.</p>
