Sounds like they started making a new queen then changed their minds - tearing into the side of the cell to remove her

With so few details, I would guess they are superceding and you may well have missed the cell from which the new queen emerged, this one being a second (or more) cell in which the queen was killed by the first one out.

Second guess would be as JBM.
