The Anaheim Police responded to an incident at the Disneyland Resort last night, February 18th, where a woman jumped or fell from the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure.
What’s Happening:
- The Anaheim Police were called to the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure at the Disneyland Resort at around 6:50 p.m. Saturday, after receiving reports of a person who fell from the massive seven story parking structure.
- The police were responding to reports saying that a woman either jumped or fell from the parking structure, whom they found on the ground when they arrived on scene.
- She received treatment on scene before being rushed to a nearby hospital, where she was pronounced dead. The Anaheim Police are currently investigating the death, as well as the circumstances surrounding it.

- The seven-story Mickey & Friends Parking Structure was the largest parking structure in the United States when it opened in 2000, and was one of the tallest buildings in Anaheim, California.
