  Recently the CMS collaboration reported a $\sim 3 \sigma$ local excess in the
di-photon spectrum at 96 GeV. The same mass range concurs with a $\sim2 \sigma$
local excess in the $b\bar{b}$ invariant mass spectrum in four-jet events
collected at LEP. In this contribution we show that at 1$\sigma$ level the 2HDM
type-III can perfectly fit both excesses simultaneously, while satisfying all
experimental and theoretical constraints.
