Late on Monday night, law enforcement responded to two violent incidents at Walt Disney World Resort in less than two hours. Here’s everything we know about these not-so-magical altercations at the Most Magical Place on Earth.

Battery in Magic Kingdom Park / Disney’s Contemporary Resort Area

The first 911 call came in from the Magic Kingdom Park/Disney’s Contemporary Resort Area at 9:21 p.m. on Monday, November 2. X (formerly known as Twitter) user @WDWActiveCrime shared the scanner report from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, which logged the incident as “Battery (Unwanted Touching or Striking Someone).”

The Google Maps screenshot attached to the X post pinpoints a location along World Drive between Magic Kingdom Park and Disney’s Contemporary Resort. However, Central Florida law enforcement often uses these coordinates to log responses in this area, so the 911 call may have originated from inside Magic Kingdom Park, at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, or somewhere between the two.

Magic Kingdom Park closed at 10:00 p.m. on Monday, so it’s possible that the battery incident occurred inside the original Central Florida Disney park.

Second Call From Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office received the second call about a battery incident at 11:14 p.m. on Monday. This time, law enforcement officers responded to Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside, according to @WDWActiveCrime:

🚨 Police Alert 🚓 – 11/2/26 11:14 PM
🚨: Battery (Unwanted Touching or Striking Someone) at 📍: Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside

In this case, the Google Maps screenshot attached to the X post pinpoints a location along Riverside Drive within Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside. Again, this address may be a generalized location used by law enforcement rather than the exact place where the 911 call originated on November 2.
