Walt Disney World Brawl: 2 Families Exchange Blows, 1 Man Hospitalized

ORLANDO, FL — Alarming video captured two families exchanging fist blows at what is supposed to be the happiest place on earth. According to multiple news outlets, the fight happened this week at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom inside Fantasyland in front of Peter Pan’s Flight.

FOX 35 said that one man suffered injuries to his face and was taken to a nearby hospital. Other family members sustained minor cuts and bruises.

An unnamed witness told the TV station that several security officers quickly stepped into to break the fight up.

"I do not know what prompted this altercation. We came upon it, and it appeared as though it took about two minutes for two security personnel to arrive," Deputies arrived probably about five minutes after that," the witness said.

In the clips, around a dozen people can be seen grabbing one another and letting fists fly as other bystanders tried to break the fight up. A screaming match fueled with obscenities also ensued until security arrived.

Neither family seemed to care that other families trying to enjoy the park with their small children were nearby.

Walt Disney World News Today interviewed a person involved in the violent brawl who shared their side of the story.

He told WDWNT that the fight started when a family member forgot their phone while in line for Mickey’s PhilharMagic. She exited the line to retrieve it, but when she returned he claims the other family refused to let her back in line with her family, even pushing her back.

Words were eventually exchanged between the two families, which ultimately escalated to physical blows.

It wasn't immediately clear if anyone who took part in the fight at Disney World will face charges.

According to FOX 35, this is the second altercation reported at the Florida attraction in the last three months.
