Overview
- Deputies responded to Disney's Fort Wilderness at 7:32 a.m. Tuesday for a 'Person Down' in the 1500 Loop at Cottontail Curl, where a man in his 60s was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.
- The Orange County Sheriff's Office reported no signs of foul play in the campground case, with the cause still under investigation and the man's identity not yet released.
- Earlier in the week, the sheriff's office said the Disney's Contemporary Resort death was an apparent suicide and clarified that the monorail was not involved.
- Media identified the Contemporary decedent as 31-year-old Summer Equitz of Naperville, Illinois, and authorities cited multiple blunt impact injuries.
- Disney has offered limited public comment as the resort continues normal operations, and the close timing of the two incidents has intensified scrutiny of safety and communication practices.
