A 44-year-old guest got into an argument with her husband when he brought his handgun to Walt Disney World on their family vacation.
That gun ended up getting the woman in trouble within hours, according to WDWNT.
According to WDWNT, she told authorities she had no idea the gun was in the family’s cooler when she tried to enter Disney’s Hollywood Studios later this morning. It ruined her family’s trip since she was banned from Disney World property.
She told authorities that she packed a cooler with drinks and food for the family’s day at Hollywood Studios, and she assumed the 9mm Smith and Wesson handgun was a battery charger when she went through park security, according to Orange County Sheriff’s Office “incident report” (via WDWNT). The gun had a magazine with 12 rounds.
The woman “stated she did not have any idea that her husband’s firearm was in the left pocket…Sh felt embarrassed about the situation,” the incident report said (via WDWNT). This is the latest incident of someone being caught with a gun at Walt Disney World.
The woman arrived at Hollywood Studios carrying the cooler with the gun in it and pushing a stroller on the 28th May, 2022. She set off a security detector and then at bag check, Disney World security found the gun.
The woman was trespassed from Disney World property. According to WDWNT, Orange County Sheriff’s Office ruled there was probable cause the woman was carrying a concealed firearm and forwarded the case to the state attorney’s office.
Because the 44-year-old woman hasn’t been charged with a crime at this time, according to online court records (via WDWNT), she won’t be named in this article.
The woman’s husband purchased the gun and got a concealed weapons permit a year earlier. She “stated she disagreed with him having a firearm,” the report said (via WDWNT).
She hadn’t been previously arrested or charged with a crime in the state of Florida before, the report said (via WDWNT). Stay tuned for further updates.
