Bees Swarm Times Square, Converge on Hot Dog Stand

Wednesday, 29 August 2018 12:42 PM EDT

Bees swarmed Times Square in New York City, causing a brief commotion after they made their home atop a hot dog stand.

It happened at 43rd Street and Broadway at about 2 p.m. Tuesday.

The New York Police Department's bee keepers unit responded to the scene and safely removed the bees.

WABC-TV shows thousands of bees crowding the top of the vendor's umbrella as a beekeeper sucks them into a hose.

In a tweet, the NYPD said that "no tourist was harmed and no bee was left behind."
