Flames from the fire could be seen rising high in the sky. The fire later spread down the body of the dragon. Spectators and the Disneyland cast members were immediately rescued to safety as the fire personnel worked to extinguish the fire.
“All cast members were safely evacuated from Tom Sawyer Island. Due to smoke and wind, attractions near the island were safely evacuated of any guests, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation at this time,” the statement continued.
