Back in April, with the Disney World theme parks and resorts closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a man was caught trespassing on the abandoned Discovery Island property near Magic Kingdom.
Orange County deputies searched for the man on foot, on boat, and via helicopter before finally making contact with him and charging him with trespassing.
Now, WKMG News 6 has obtained video of the manhunt as it played out on foot and on boat on Discovery Island.

wow what a mess, poor image of a Disney property, they really should clean it up and re purpose it
I would pay good money for that Discovery Island trash can. Very cool video!
That looks amazing, a scene out of jurassic world when they come upon the original park. Reference to the cop saying “is this where they house dinosaurs” lol
I went to discovery Island before it was closed and animal kingdom opened. It was a great place. Shame it closed.
Guns out, of course.
Of course, they didnt know what the guy was going to do when confronted.
Jamie you are hilarious
I wonder if they have velociraptor eggs anywhere ????
Yes, I agree!
Everyone has opinions. However, are you equipped with the proper information to judge? Open your own amusement park. Then let’s see what you can do. Clark lol
I still have a discovery island ticket. I wonder if they would honor it. Lol
Appears to be a big amount of resources to catch one man that is not doing any harm to the run down jungle of a mess property that has been discarded by Disney.
Yes he is trespassing, what are the charges for such a crime? Disney should hire this man to guard the property or clean it up,after all he knows the property and likes being there.
Of course they are out, you don’t know if the person has a weapon and is armed. When you speak on something you have no experience with you just look like a fool.
