Police cite a violent restaurant confrontation at Loews Portofino Bay, with possible bodycam video pending.
Overview

- The suspects—Amanda Brito, Olivia Brito, Laura Silva, and Diorite Humberte—were taken into custody and later released on bond.
- Officials signaled that additional updates could follow, including possible release of body camera footage.
- Universal Orlando had not issued a public statement, and the episode has renewed concerns about team member safety at major resorts.
