Violent brawl breaks out at Disney World as families throw punches over selfie spot

ORLANDO, FLORIDA: A celebration day at the Walt Disney World quickly turned chaotic as a huge brawl broke out between two families following an apparent argument. The fight reportedly erupted at around 2.30 pm on Monday, May 17, when a family was asked to move in order to let another family take pictures by the 100th-anniversary sign installed at Disney's Magic Kingdom theme park in Orlando.

In a shocking video of the skirmish, up to ten men and women are seen pushing and throwing punches at one another after the first family refused to move. Members of the families were bundled to the ground and thrashed each other in front of the gorgeous garden. "Did you see how it broke out? I was walking right here and just saw it happening,” a man is heard asking in the video. “I was just walking right here, and I saw it just happening," someone replies.

How many were injured?

The families were seen shouting and cursing at one another until employees and a security officer arrived to separate them, with the man on the floor struggling to get up. According to the sheriff's office, at least one individual had to receive medical care following the altercation, but no charges have been filed, NY Post reported.

Disney's warning last year

This is not the first brawl reported at the Magic Kingdom. Following an increase in violence, Disney issued a warning against disorderly behavior at its theme parks in Florida and California towards the end of 2022. Last summer, mayhem unfolded at Magic Kingdom when a lady attempted to cut in queue. In a viral video of the brawl, two families were seen swinging at each other on the world-famous resort's fairy tale boulevard.

The ruckus ended in multiple arrests and a lifelong ban for an entire family, while one man was hospitalized with facial lacerations. The incident happened after the woman found out she had left her phone on an electric scooter and momentarily abandoned the queue at Mickey's PhilharMagic show. However, things got out of hand after the woman was stopped from rejoining the line by another group. Soon the argument heated up and the two parties started shoving and pushing. Both groups were eventually brought to different Disney security offices to provide statements, with two people being detained. Orange County Sheriffs, the Reedy Creek Fire Department, and paramedics all rushed to the scene shortly after to help cool off the situation and treat wounds.
