Overview
- Deputies were dispatched around 8:55 p.m. on January 2 for a “person down” near East Buena Vista Drive, and the call was soon upgraded to a “dead person” as a deceased man was found at the Orange Garage.
- The Orange County Sheriff’s Office said the case is being investigated as a possible suicide and announced no additional updates would be provided over the weekend.
- Officials have not released the man’s identity or an official cause of death, and an autopsy by the medical examiner is expected as the investigation continues.
- Eyewitnesses reported the lower level of the garage was cordoned off with a blue tarp in place and access to some vehicles was delayed, though Disney Springs operations were reported normal by Saturday morning.
- Separate social and dispatch posts described a second 911 call at Disney Springs on January 3, but authorities had not confirmed any additional incident in official statements.
