At 10:35 a.m. on July 1, the Orange County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call about a battery incident at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa. Scanner monitoring account @WDWActiveCrime captured the dispatch on X (formerly known as Twitter):

🚨 Police Alert 🚓 – 7/1/26 10:35 AM
🚨: Battery (Unwanted Touching or Striking Someone) at 📍: Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa
#WaltDisneyWorld #Disney

The call was logged specifically as “Battery (Unwanted Touching or Striking Someone)” — a classification that distinguishes this response from a general disturbance call and indicates physical contact was involved. The Google Maps pin attached to the alert places the incident in the general center of Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa, though, as with most scanner logs tied to Walt Disney World Resort properties, that reflects a generalized tracking address rather than a confirmed precise location.

Whether the incident involved guests, cast members, or both hasn't been established. Walt Disney World Resort made no public statement about the response, which is standard procedure for the resort in situations like this. If criminal charges are filed, additional details may eventually emerge through the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

No Disruption to Resort Operations
