Sleeping Farmworker Killed by Ants Quote: LA PAZ, Bolivia — Bolivian police say that a 42-year-old man who fell asleep under an ant-infested tree was been killed by insect bites. Beni city Police Chief Rolando Ramos says that farmworker Santiago Ortiz apparently had been drinking before sitting down beneath a Palo Santo tree — a type noted for its aromatic wood and for hosting a particularly aggressive sort of ant. Ramos said Tuesday that when police reached the scene, the man was already dead, but swarms of ants were still crawling across his body. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,534245,00.html __________________ Forum Rules The Thanks! button Spelling and the TTR How to insert a picture Using our search feature Copying and pasting articles TTR Advertising opportunities
