A Florida man received a trespass warning last month after flying a drone over Magic Kingdom, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department.
Disney security noticed a drone flying overhead about 100 feet from Cinderella’s castle.
Not far away, the 40-year-old, who was not identified, but said to be an experienced drone pilot, was found by an off-duty Orange County deputy in an apartment complex near the theme park. The incident took place May 20, according to the incident report.
Several sheriff’s deputies reported to the scene, where, along with Disney security, they confronted the pilot.
“I asked him why he was in a parking lot of an apartment complex he did not live in and standing behind trees out of view from Reams Road. He did not have a clear answer to the question,” a deputy said in the report.
According to the Disney World website, drones and remote-controlled toys are prohibited from entering the park. Both Disney World and Disneyland are also designated as no-fly zones for drones, or other such devices.
The man asked to delete the footage, but was not arrested for a crime. He was, however, issued a trespass warning which comes with a indefinite ban.
