“Let security handle it!” a woman is heard screaming as the sound of children crying and people screeching is heard while security surrounds the attacker. “Everybody needs to stand back!”
“This guy punched a girl,” another person says, while others are heard telling their children to leave and head somewhere else.

Orange County released the mugshot of the 21-year-old after filing domestic battery charges against him.
The identity of the victim has not been confirmed, but the family of the attacker has been identified as Edward Cameron, his father; Diane Cameron, his mother; and Sarah Cameron, his sister.
The family had previously visitedDisney Worldon many occasions, sharing many holiday pictures on their social media profiles at various attractions in the park.
The person filming the attack, who is stated to have been a regular visitor, explained how the violent incident was a “rare occurrence” but added that they noticed security being ramped up at Disney venues in recent months.
Matthew and his sister have been regular visitors to Disney World for at least 8 years and were presumably visiting to celebrate Sarah’s birthday
Despite numerous publications making her Instagram profile public, the attacker’s sister, Sarah, has chosen to keep her page open.
Matthew, on the other hand, hasdeleted all photosfrom his profile, although it’s unclear if this decision was made to avoid harassment or if it is due to other concerns.

Sarah has photos with her brother, a tiny kid at the time, having fun at Disney World as far back as 2016, with her stating that “she’d rather have [Matthew] than anyone else as [her] brother,” as the pair posed in front of Disney World’s trademark castle.
Recent photos show that the family went on their trip seemingly to celebrate Sarah’s birthday. She captioned a post uploaded on October 21 as a “very merry unbirthday” while posing with the Mad Hatter and Alice from the movieAlice in Wonderland.
“As others have commented, he hasspecial needs, and his victims seem to be his mother and sister. Heartbreaking for the family,” a reader wrote.
“He is very obviously Special Educational Needs (SEN), and it looks like he comes from a lovely family where he is truly loved,” another explained. “Something went wrong; it must have been very upsetting for them all and probably not the first time.”
“It’s pretty obvious that the women he assaulted are his mom and sister,” said one viewer. “The pics allow you to draw that conclusion.”
According to online court records, Matthew Cameron was released from jail on a $500 bond and is set to face court next January.
“Disney is over,” wrote one netizen, echoing the sentiments of those who believed the incident signified a bigger issue with the park’s security
