According to the Orlando Sentinel, local police are still searching “for the driver of a large vehicle, possibly an SUV or truck” that was involved in the accident that killed a Disney cast member on his way to work on July 5th.
Harold Gist, a chef at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, was riding his motorcycle to work around 3:40am going west on Fortune Road.
Gist was allegedly hit by the large vehicle and “flung into the roadway before being hit by another vehicle traveling in the same direction.” The second vehicle to hit Gist stayed and waited for police, while the initial vehicle did not.
