Chaos at the Castle in Magic Kingdom, Main Street (32830) : Teen Injured at Disney World After Tourist Shoves Her Over Parade Spot — POLICE RESPONDING

Magic Kingdom, Main Street (32830) — In what should have been a magical day at Walt Disney World, a violent altercation broke out between guests — leaving a 15-year-old girl injured and a family vacation turned upside down. According to Orange County Sheriff’s Office, the teen was pushed to the ground by an out-of-state tourist during a heated argument over a viewing spot for the “Festival of Fantasy” parade on Main Street, U.S.A.

Witnesses say the confrontation escalated quickly when the tourist attempted to move into a space the teen’s family had been saving for over an hour. In the scuffle, the teen suffered a shoulder injury and mild head trauma, prompting on-site medics to intervene and transport her to a nearby hospital.

Police have identified the suspect, a 43-year-old woman from New Jersey, who is now facing charges of simple battery and disturbing the peace. Disney security and deputies are reviewing surveillance footage and interviewing witnesses.

The incident has reignited debate around crowd control and guest behavior in theme parks, with many calling for stricter enforcement during high-traffic summer months.
