Florida.- Florida deputies arrested a man who had been living his quarantine on a closed island of Disney World, telling authorities that he felt like a “tropical paradise.” Orange County Sheriff’s officers found Richard McGuire on Disney’s Discovery Island on Thursday. He said he had been there since Monday or Tuesday and had planned to camp there for a week, according to an arrest report. The 42-year-old said he did not hear numerous agents looking for him on foot on the private island, by boat and by air because he was asleep in a building. He told the deputy that he did not know it was a restricted area, even though there were numerous signs of “no break-in.”
Although there is still no exact date for the reopening of theme parks, last Tuesday, April 28, Florida officials and Disney representatives met to discuss prevention/AFP measures

ORLANDO, Florida (AP) – Florida deputies arrested a man who had been living his quarantine on a closed island of Disney World, telling authorities that he felt like a “tropical paradise.” Orange County Sheriff’s officers found Richard McGuire on Disney’s Discovery Island on Thursday. He said he had been there since Monday or Tuesday and had planned to camp there for a week, according to an arrest report. The 42-year-old said he did not hear numerous agents looking for him on foot on the private island, by boat and by air because he was asleep in a building. He told the deputy that he did not know it was a restricted area, even though there were numerous signs of “no break-in.”
“Richard stated that he was not aware of that and that he looked like a tropical paradise,” according to the arrest report.
Marine officers from Orange County in Bay Lake used a public address system to tell McGuire that he was not allowed to be on the property, but he remained on the island anyway, according to the arrest report.
A Disney security representative said he saw McGuire wearing a company boat Thursday, and noted that the area had several “do not enter” signs and two closed doors. She asked the agency to press charges. McGuire was arrested for a break-in crime and taken to jail without incident. It was not immediately clear whether he had a lawyer who could comment. Formerly called Treasure Island, Discovery Island had been the site of a zoo before the island was closed to the public in 1999.
