LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Reedy Creek fire officials say a small fire at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom Tuesday may have sprouted from a tree.
WESH-TV reports that officials say the fire near Cinderella Castle could have been caused by debris from the classic fireworks show set off at the castle.
The castle and surrounding areas were evacuated.
Firefighters quickly extinguished the flames.
Reedy Creek Fire Association president Jon Shirey says the only injury was a person who accidentally inhaled the chemicals from a chemical fire extinguisher used by the fire department.
This is definitely something we have never seen in all our years of visiting The Magic Kingdom... @WDWNT @InsideTheMagic pic.twitter.com/vWR7Cdhzw5
