Disney Springs – a place for everyone to shop, enjoy some family time, and apparently get bothered by some drunk guy who got thrown out of a Hawthorne Heights show.
According to a report by WDW News Today, Ryan Tomasko, 38, was arrested for trespass, disorderly intoxication and resisting an officer on August 9. Tomasko was kicked out of the Hawthorne Heights at the House Of Blues in Disney Springs for being too drunk, and that's when the trouble started.
Per a report from the arresting officer from the Orange County Sheriff's Office: "Ryan started to walk towards the exit, while swaying towards poles that were placed on the sidewalk in front of the House of Blues. To prevent Ryan from colliding with the poles and possibly falling and injuring himself, I placed my hand on Ryan's back and started to guide him away from the poles. Ryan reached the front of the restaurant located at the House of Blues at which time he stopped walking and attempted to lean onto a pole located in front of the establishment."
Officers noted that Tomasko then started to walk toward families watching a drone show, at which point they tried to contain him before anything else happened. "To avoid any potential conflict and/or injuries to bystanders, I grabbed Ryan's left shirt arm to guide him to the closest exit at which time Ryan pulled his arm away from me," wrote the officer.
"At this time, due to Ryan's refusal to follow lawful orders to leave the property at the nearest exit, his intoxication in a crowded public place with several families and persons attempting to enjoy their time at Disney Springs, coupled with the fact that Ryan was asked to leave several times, I attempted to take Ryan into custody."
Tomasko then locked his legs to avoid being moved, and the rest involved being shoved into a police car. Tomasko has pleaded not guilty to all charges against him.
