Brawl Breaks Out Between Guests At Walt Disney World

It wasn't the Most Magical Place on Earth for two families who got into a fistfight at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World.

Guests visiting Magic Kingdom got into a brawl over a photo spot, forcing security and Cast Members to get involved in an attempt to break it up.

The fight occurred Monday afternoon at the entrance of Disney's Magic Kingdom theme park. Located just past the entrance gates, Disney installed a new 100th Anniversary sign, celebrating 100 years of The Walt Disney Company, which seemed to be the reason behind the fight.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office responded to the fight at the theme park around 2:30 p.m. on Monday, May 15 after one family was reportedly standing in front of the 100th anniversary sign, when another family wanted to take a photo where the first family was standing. The second family reportedly asked the other family to move out of the way, which is when a family member punched another member of the other family in the face.

That is when a full-on brawl broke out.

A bystander, who witnessed the brawl, caught the incident on video.

"Did you see how it broke out?" one Disney Guest says in the video while another is heard saying, "I was just walking right here, and I saw it just happening."

According to Fox35Orlando, at least one person was medically treated at the scene following the brawl. That person reportedly did not want to press charges. Two other Guests were removed from the theme park, according to Orange County deputies.

Others shared videos of the incident to social media, including Twitter account Daily Loud.

This is not the first fight to occur at Walt Disney World. Last year, a full-on brawl broke out between Guests at Magic Kingdom near Peter Pan’s Flight. The families involved threw punches, ripped one another's shirts, and were heard screaming at one another.

And a few days The Blast reported on a Disney Guest, who visiting from Oklahoma, was arrested after having too many drinks, attacking a Cast Member, and then running into a backstage area of EPCOT.

Patrick Delehanty had a “meltdown” at EPCOT after having too many drinks and lying on the ground in the rain, attacking a Cast Member, and running backstage at the Mexico pavilion inside World Showcase.

It started when Delehanty had a “meltdown” at EPCOT, per the arrest report, after having too many drinks and lying on the ground in the rain, attacking a Cast Member, and running backstage at the Mexico pavilion inside World Showcase. A Disney World Guest Experiences Manager, who was nearby, saw the incident unfolding and came over to see if he could help Delehanty’s friend, but this just seemed to agitate Delehanty even more.

“While waiting for a wheelchair, Patrick became aggressive, getting to his feet and shouting,” the arrest report stated. “Next, Patrick picked up a stanchion, attempting to swing or throw it at (the Disney guest experience manager), who feared being struck. The stanchion picked up by Patrick was tethered to a second stanchion, preventing him from striking with it. Patrick quickly picked up the stanchion before slamming it to the ground. Next, Patrick picked up a table and threw it.”

Delehanty took off yelling and ran into a backstage area, which is off-limits to Guests, and attempted to enter one of the buildings. However, he did not get far, as deputies showed up.
