January 1, Man Arrested at Disney for Terrifying Reason

A Florida man was arrested at a Disney Springs parking garage after being found with ammunition, a gun, and two magazines in a backpack while trying to get through security, according to a report.

Police said Aaron Josue Lopez went through security at the parking garage around 10 p.m. when he was flagged for a second search.

Disney policy dictates that weapons are not allowed on any company property.

Lopez allegedly told Disney security that a folding knife was in his backpack. He reportedly turned around and walked away, telling the officer, “Oh, there’s something else in here besides a knife that I wanna put back in my car.”

At that point, another Disney employee stopped Lopez and took him to Orange County Sheriff’s Office.

Lopez was arrested and booked on one count of carrying a concealed firearm.
