A group of 17 people, including six children, were hit by bird droppings from a flock of geese flying overhead at Disneyland in California. The incident occurred just before 9pm on Friday, prompting a hazardous materials team to be called to the theme park.
Anaheim police and fire officials confirmed that the visitors were taken to a private bathroom to clean up and were provided with clean clothes. Despite the unpleasant experience, authorities reported that the guests were “healthy and happy” after the event.
The park, which bills itself as the happiest place on earth, quickly determined that the culprit was a flock of geese rather than any human interference. The hazardous materials team was initially called after reports that faeces had been thrown on people, but the source was soon identified as the birds overhead.
