Guest Arrested for Bringing Loaded Gun to Ticket and Transportation Center at Walt Disney World, States 6-Year-Old Was Supposed to “Watch Over It” – wdwnt.com

Yet another gun incident has been reported at the Walt Disney World Resort, this time taking place at the Ticket & Transportation Center, where a guest was arrested for carrying a concealed loaded 9mm gun—and attempting to ditch it behind a planter.

One of the AdventHealth temperature screening tents at the Ticket & Transportation Center in Walt Disney World.

According to the Orlando Sentinel’s Gabrielle Russon, the guest, named Marcia Temple of Lithonia, Georgia, blamed her 6-year-old in the police report, stating he was “supposed to be watching the gun.” A member of the AdventHealth temperature check team noticed her take her purse (which contained the gun) from the stroller and leave it behind a planter near the tent. They then alerted Disney Security of the issue. The Orange County Deputy on duty followed up by asking Temple why she’d brought a gun to Walt Disney World.

Temple did not have a concealed weapons permit, and was arrested and charged with carrying a concealed firearm. She is also now banned from Walt Disney World property.
