Multiple Cars Burglarized Across Disney World on May 27

Two vehicle burglaries were reported at separate Walt Disney World Resort parking areas on Wednesday, hours apart. It remains unclear whether the same person is responsible for both.

Two Incidents, Two Locations

Hours later, at 2:41 p.m., another call came in — this time from the Mango parking area at Disney Springs. @WDWActiveCrime logged that response as well:

Whether the two incidents are connected — and whether any suspect has been identified or taken into custody — hasn't been confirmed. Neither Walt Disney World Resort security nor local law enforcement released additional details about either burglary following the responses.

Both Disney Springs and Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort are operating normally in the wake of Wednesday's incidents. Guests can continue to park personal vehicles at both locations without any reported restrictions.

Even at Walt Disney World Resort, basic vehicle security habits go a long way. Always lock your car, avoid leaving valuables visible inside, and take note of your parking location before heading into the parks or resort areas.

If your vehicle appears to have been tampered with at any point during your visit, locate a security cast member immediately. Law enforcement officers are stationed throughout Walt Disney World Resort and can respond quickly when needed.
