Samantha Stoneley was having a tea break in her garden when the bug - longer than an index finger and with a big stinger - swooped down and died in front of her. It will only increase concern after a similar creature was discovered in an east Hull garden just a few days earlier by a toddler, which was feared to be a giant Asian killer hornet. That species has distinctive yellow legs, much like the bug found in Samantha's back garden, and has very potent venom. She said the reaction to the creature falling out of the sky had been "like a scene from a movie". "It frightened me so it would frighten any child coming across it playing in their garden."
