Employees who portrayed Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Donald Duck each claim they were inappropriately touched by tourists.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Walt Disney World employees who portray Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Donald Duck each filed police reports this month claiming they were inappropriately touched by tourists.

“Everyone should feel safe at work, and we encourage Cast Members to come forward in any uncomfortable situation,” said Disney spokeswoman Andrea Finger in a statement. “We provide multiple resources to protect our Cast Members’ well-being, including on-site law enforcement officers who respond, and are available to them, if needed.”

The tourist’s family said they weren’t aware the employee had been taken to the hospital until they were contacted by the newspaper Thursday. The family was confused whether Disney has a no-touching rule for the costumed characters, since they give high-fives and hugs to visitors, he said. She alerted her supervisors and identified pictures of the 61-year-old man from Brewster, Minnesota. She decided against pressing charges.
