A new video documenting a 2022 arrest initiated by a federal officer recognizing a fugitive at Disney’s Animal Kingdom has been released. Federal postal inspector Jeff Andre was on vacation at Walt Disney World Resort in October 2022 and noticed Quashon Burton, a fugitive from New York who had been on the run for nearly a year, while visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Andre had signed the complaint against Burton in the U.S. District Court’s Southern District of New York in 2021 and, thus, knew his likeness.
New Video Documenting Arrest at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Released
The video shows an Orange County Sheriff’s Office deputy walking through the bus service location and communicating with colleagues. He approaches Burton, who is waiting at a bus stop, and asks if he has any identification. Burton says that he does not think he has his identification, prompting the officer to ask him what his first name is. Burton grows visibly confused, and the deputy tells him that “[they] have word that he might be doing something.”
Burton tells the officer that he’s done nothing wrong. He repeats this as another officer restrains his arms behind his back. The deputy tells Burton that he is “the suspect” and mentions a warrant. Burton’s daughter, who was one of two family members waiting at the bus stop with him, starts to cry as handcuffs are applied around Burton’s wrists.
