Oyuki Ramírez Burciaga, a magistrate of the Superior Court of Justice of Zacatecas, has died after spending nine days hospitalised following a severe bee swarm attack at the Guadalupe Sports Unit in Mexico. The incident occurred on May 3 and left several people injured.

Authorities confirmed that the judge initially survived the attack and was transported to hospital conscious, but her condition deteriorated due to intense allergic reactions and inflammation caused by multiple stings. She was later placed on life support before passing away this week.

Mother’s instinct: protecting her child first

Witness accounts describe Ramírez Burciaga’s actions during the chaotic moment as courageous. When the swarm suddenly attacked visitors at the sports complex, she reportedly shielded her three-year-old son with a sweatshirt to prevent him from being stung, leaving herself exposed.
