Overview

  • The Orange County Medical Examiner confirmed a Nov. 8 death at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa and said the office declined jurisdiction, releasing the body to the individual’s personal physician.
  • Authorities have not released the person’s identity or cause of death.
  • Two earlier cases were ruled suicides at the Contemporary Resort area on Oct. 14 and Oct. 23, according to official rulings reported by media outlets.
  • Separate recent deaths involved a man in his 60s who suffered a medical episode at Fort Wilderness on Oct. 21 and a woman in her 40s who died after a medical emergency at Pop Century on Nov. 2.
