Crime scene tape was spotted at Future World in EPCOT (Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow) late last night. On March 20th, 2021 police were called to respond to a scary situation. There was a call placed at 8:31pm with a location of “The Stars”. That is the address for the Spaceship Earth area of EPCOT.
Guests walking through Future World West were actually being redirected around a cordoned off area. It was secured with crime scene tape and a heavy police presence. However, a little over an hour later (a little before 10pm), everything was cleared and guests were free to roam as they pleased.
Future World West is the part of the park that houses attractions like The Seas with Nemo and Friends, and Soarin’.
According to the “Call for Service Log”, the call description reads- ‘Dead Person’. However, there is no confirmation from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office or Disney if the person was deceased.
No other news has been released as of right now on what happened. Make sure to keep checking back with Just Disney. As always, we will keep you updated on this story. As well as everything Disney going on inside, and outside of the parks.
**UPDATE**- A guest has died due to a medical issue reported at EPCOT Saturday Night. First responders responded to a medical call near Spaceship Earth. The guest was taken to AdventHealth Celebration Hospital. It was there that they were pronounced dead.
