Any locals know of accident this morning?

[mydisneykids]

We were on our way to AK this morning and the busses were all being diverted to the front parking lot. The resort bus area just reopened and there was a news helicopter hovering most of the morning.
Does anyone know what happened. Heard it was an accident and hoping all are ok.

Bomb threat or just a bag left on a bus?
Did someone call a threat in or did someone forget a bag?

This is the second "bomb scare" in the Orlando Attractions Corridor this week. One was up by Sea World earlier this week. Someone with to much time on their hands?

Yeah that turned out to be a Homeless' Persons or bums suitcase that had electronics in it while He was passed out behind a nearby hotel.

1) The ACCIDENT was a WDW bus hitting Jersey Blocks (barriers) at AK entrance.
2) This is the area just before the guard house for bus entrance.
3) The bus was in the process of changing entrance lanes.
4) Looks like maybe a new drive who couldn't make up his/her mind.
5) There were
. . . delays up to 2-hrs with buses
. . . several ambulances, since buses now have so many standing positions

Thank you. The few employees we talked to had said it was an accident. Wonder what resort it was coming from and blessed we were a little after this.
