The crime report for summer at Disneyland has just been released. The Orange County Register details all of the incidents recorded in the police log between the months of June and July.

There were a vast amount of bleak circumstances reported by Guests of Disneyland Resort, and some of the accusations were quite alarming. Anaheim Police were on the scene, dealing with twenty-one calls in June and twenty-six in July.

Among the troubling reports were cases involving assault that ended with suspects being booked. Other incidents repeatedly seen at the Parks include narcotics, theft, trespassing, and vandalism.

The most disturbing accounts involved arson, firearms, assault, missing children, and child abuse. Recently, we reported on a man arrested for child abuse at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

The altercation occurred on the Toy Story Mania ride and ended with a teenager being sent to a nearby hospital for concussion concerns. Despite the various crime’s reported, Disneyland Resort is actually one of Disney’s safest theme parks.

Typically, police only need to respond once or twice a day, which is incredibly minor, considering the hoards of people visiting the Parks annually. This year, Disney’s Theme Parks have seen an increase in unruly Guest behavior.

Recently, we’ve reported on multiple fights occurring at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. Guests have been seen throwing punches and yelling at each other, with their distasteful actions caught on camera.
