A Cameron County justice of the peace said both victims died because of the amount of stings they suffered during the attacks.

“They were stung hundreds of times on their bodies and as a result of the multiple stings, they had a reaction to it and lost their lives. It was very tragic,” said Cameron County Justice of the Peace Precinct 2 Place 2 Jonathan D. Garcia. source
