Idaho Falls Native and son die in ‘Murder Hornet’ attack while zip-lining in Southeast Asia

An Idaho Falls native and his teenage son died last month after being attacked by a swarm of Asian giant hornets—often dubbed 'murder hornets'—while zip-lining in Laos, in Southeast Asia.

Daniel Owen, 47, and his 15-year-old son, Cooper, died following the incident on October 15th, as reported by USA Today. The father and son were stung by hundreds of the aggressive insects during their vacation before being rushed to the Phakan Arocavet Clinic for emergency care.
