“At one point there was a fireball,” Laux told the Times. “There was a bit of debris that fell from the prop.”
“It was shocking,” he added. “The crowd was at a standstill. People are packed in like sardines.
“It happened out of nowhere,” Melissa Giles, a 30-year-old guest from Alberta, Canada, also told the newspaper. “We thought it was part of the show. Within seconds it went up in flames.”
KNBC reported that one video captured an announcement telling guests the show could not continue due to “unforeseen circumstances” as crowds were ushered away from the area.
One witness told WABC cast members evacuated the area around Frontierland, but the rest of the park remained open.
