Even at the Most Magical Place on Earth, it’s important to lock your personal vehicle and make note of where it’s parked. If your vehicle appears disturbed at the end of your day at the theme parks or stay at a Disney Resort hotel, find security cast members immediately. Law enforcement officers are also positioned throughout Walt Disney World Resort in case of unfortunate incidents like these.
