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

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

The Google Maps screenshot included with the post marks a location near Echo Lake, situated in the middle of Disney's Hollywood Studios. As is typical with these reports, though, scanner coordinates tied to Walt Disney World Resort properties usually reflect a generalized address for the theme park or hotel rather than the exact location where the incident occurred.

Given that this is a hit-and-run report specifically, it seems unlikely the crash actually occurred in the middle of the park itself. It's far more probable that the incident happened in a parking area or along a roadway near Disney's Hollywood Studios, though the precise location of the crash remains unconfirmed.

What Remains Unknown

Neither Walt Disney World Resort nor the Orange County Sheriff's Office has released a statement regarding Monday's incident.

It's currently unclear whether anyone sustained injuries, how many vehicles were involved in the crash, and whether those involved were Disney cast members, theme park guests, or unrelated parties passing through the Central Florida vacation destination. Additional information could become available later if a police report is published or criminal charges are filed in connection with the case.
