Earlier this week a major brawl broke out right at the main entrance of the Magic Kingdom. We now have an update to this story.
Fight at the Magic Kingdom
On May 15, a fight took place in front of the train station at the Magic Kingdom. You can read the full story HERE.
According to our eye witness who saw the incident take place, a family was getting a photo with a PhotoPass Photographer. Another family walked in the picture on their way into the park and the family getting their photo taken grew upset.
This led to a physical fight where blood was drawn and law enforcement stepped in. Approximately 6 people in both groups were involved throwing punches, pushing each other, and more.
At the time we were unaware if any arrests were made or if anyone was transported to the hospital. Many people will argue this type of behavior deserves a lifetime ban from the Disney World theme parks.
An update
According to Fox 35 News, one Guest needed medical attention but was not transported to the hospital. Additionally, two of the Guests involved were trespassed from Disney World and banned from entering the park. We are unsure which of the guests were asked to leave, but considering there were at least 6 people we find this a bit surprising.
At least one person was treated medically at the scene following the fight, but that person did not want to press charges. Two others were removed from the theme park, Orange County deputies said.
Disney World did not respond to Fox 35 for a comment.
Do you think this behavior is justified? Should more people have been banned? Let us know in the comments below and share this post with a friend.

Combine thoughtless, rude people with 90 degree temperatureshigh humidity and crowds and you get aggression! People don't follow the unwritten rules: Walk on the RIGHT! Don't stop suddenly. Don't gather in gaggles, either when walking or stopping, and ESPECIALLY DO NOT STOP OR GATHER IN THE MIDDLE OF A WALKWAY! Step to the side of a walk to use your phone! Be mindful of people taking pictures. Keep children under reasonable control. We've been here a week and there have been times . . . .
