Michel crashed into a roadside pole in Sabanalarga, Atlantico Department, Colombia, as he desperately tried to fight off the bees on 10th March, smashing his left leg.

But while medics treated his crash injuries, they did not spot, according to local media, his deadly allergy to bee venom.

Michel’s father, Pedro Pablo Villa, has blamed doctors for not seeing that his son had been severely affected by the stings.

He said they were so concerned with surgery on his son’s badly broken leg that they failed to spot the allergy that triggered his heart attack.

Michel had been transferred from a local hospital to the better-equipped CARI clinic in Barranquilla for an emergency operation.

Pedro said: “We were informed that he was in the Sabanalarga Hospital.

“We got there and the doctors told us that he had fourth-level injuries in his leg and that they could not operate on him because the hospital did not have the resources and that they were going to transfer him to CARI in Barranquilla.

“At four in the afternoon, the ambulance arrived to transport him.

“However, when we saw the delay we became worried.”

Pedro claims that medics told him his son had died just hours later from a cardiac arrest brought on by the stings, reports local media.

Police are investigating the death.
