Disneyland Veteran Employee Dies From Golf Cart Accident Injuries

A Disneyland employee has died from a head injury sustained when she fell from a moving golf cart at the resort.

The Los Angeles Times reports that the Orange County Coroner Division identified the deceased employee as Bonnye Mavis Lear. The 60-year-old was employed at the Disneyland Resort for 24 years and “supported membership services at Club 33,” a private dining club at Disneyland.

Responders came to the resort on Wednesday just before 11:30 AM regarding the incident.

A collision occurred backstage, according to a statement released Saturday by the Anaheim Police Department.

Lear was taken to a local hospital in grave condition, the statement read. She died on Friday, two days after the incident.

“We are heartbroken by the loss of Bonnye, and offer our sincere condolences to everyone who cared for her,” Disneyland Resort president Ken Potrock said in a statement. “At this time, we are focused on supporting her family and our cast members through this tragic event and making sure they have the resources they need.”
