An act of vandalism killed half a million bees and nearly wiped out an
Iowa couple's honey business - until their community rallied behind them
and raised more than $30,000 in two days.
Tori and Justin Engelhardt's of Sioux City woke up Thursday morning and
discovered vandals had broken into their bee farm and destroyed all 50
of their beehives.
Justin conceded the outlook "looked really hopeless" and doubted the business could survive such a large financial hit.
But then, support came pouring in overnight. News of the vandalism
spread and many people in the surrounding communities opened their
hearts and wallets in support of the Engelhardts
