A man allegedly pretended to be a Walt Disney World employee by wearing a name tag, work pants and a work vest to the theme park in May.John Raoux via Associated PressA Florida man who was looking for a security job at Walt Disney World has been accused of stealing a character’s statue from the park in May.David Emerson Proudfoot was arrested and is facing third-degree grand theft charges and obstruction by false information after he allegedly donned a Disney name tag and attempted to steal a “Star Wars” R2-D2 statue worth up to $10,000, Law & Crime reported
A “confused” Proudfoot was allegedly spotted pushing a cart while leaving the Swan and Dolphin Hotel, according to the news outlet. An affidavit said he identified himself with a name of someone who didn’t work for Walt Disney World and eventually said he was moving the statue and a game machine “on the property.”The man said he applied for a Disney World security job, the affidavit said, and wanted to move the items to point out security lapses in hopes of getting a better paying position.He allegedly told police it wasn’t his goal to take the items from Disney World, although a search warrant at his home “revealed thousands of dollars worth of items” from the theme park, Law & Crime reported.Related...Tim Allen Finally Shares His Thoughts On New 'Lightyear' Movie'Hocus Pocus 2' Trailer Will Put A Nostalgia Spell On You: 'We're Back, Witches''Lilo & Stitch' Director Says 'Frozen' Praise Was 'Frustrating' For This One ReasonAdvertisement Related...I Dated My Camp Boyfriend For 3 Summers.
