Disneyland Explosion Prompts Toontown Evacuation
An explosion was reported at Disneyland in Anaheim, California on Tuesday, according to local news outlets, prompting the evacuation of a portion of the park. The blast occurred in the Mickey's Toontown section of the theme park, according to CBS Los Angeles. A plastic bottle filled with dry ice reportedly ruptured inside a trash can, the Anaheim Police Department told the Los Angeles Times. No injuries were reported.
Toontown was evacuated as a precaution and fire crews responded at the scene, according to ABC 10 News. The Orange County Sheriff's Department also sent a bomb squad to the scene, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Here's more from the Associated Press:
Park visitor Allen Wolf says he was about 20 feet from the blast, near Toontown's City Hall. He said the sound was similar to a gunshot, but louder. Wolf says the park's music never stopped playing as security surrounded the trash cans where the bang came from and told visitors they were evacuating.
Disneyland officials did not immediately reply to a message seeking comment.
