The Orange County Sheriff’s Office logged the call at 9:10 a.m. on September 28, responding to a report of a hit-and-run at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Central Florida law enforcement monitoring account @WDWActiveCrime shared the scanner details on X (formerly known as Twitter), posting:

🚨 Police Alert 🚓 – 9/28/26 9:10 AM
🚨: Hit And Run at 📍: Disney’s Hollywood Studios
#WaltDisneyWorld #Disney

A Google Maps screenshot attached to the post identifies a spot near Echo Lake, positioned in the middle of the park. However, scanner reports associated with Walt Disney World Resort properties often list a generic address rather than the exact location of the incident.

Given the nature of a hit-and-run report, it seems unlikely the crash took place in the heart of the park itself. A parking lot or nearby roadway is a far more probable location for the incident, though the precise site of the crash remains unclear at this time.

Limited Details Available

As of now, neither Walt Disney World Resort nor the Orange County Sheriff’s Office has issued a public statement about the incident.

Whether anyone was injured, how many vehicles were involved, and whether those affected were Disney cast members, theme park guests, or neither also remain unknown. Further details could surface later if a police report is released or criminal charges are eventually filed.
