A father was savagely beaten during a bloody Disneyland brawl after he confronted a family who were trying to cut the line for the Indiana Jones ride, his traumatized relatives claim.
The dad, who hasn’t been identified publicly, was brutally attacked at the Anaheim amusement park while he was waiting for the ride with his teenage daughter on Tuesday, according to his family.
The beatdown, which the victim’s relatives detailed in a Reddit thread, left the man in need of multiple stitches and covered in bruises.

The chaos erupted just before 1 p.m. when the alleged assailant flew into a rage after he and his family were accused of trying to skip the line.
Horrified witnesses recalled seeing the perp, who was wearing light-green sweatpants, pummeling the father for roughly a minute as he cowered on the ground.
“It was incredibly traumatizing, and the dude who assaulted the man ran off,” one witness detailed in the Reddit post.
The dad “was covered in blood on his face and Disney staff closed the line and sent staff to scrub blood off the floor in multiple spots.”

“I thought the guy was going to die,” the witness added.
The victim’s daughter was overheard screaming “stop hitting my dad” during the attack, the onlookers said.
A teen, who identified herself as the victim’s daughter, later posted a picture with her dad on Reddit showing them smiling at the park, even though the man has a large bandage on his head.

“Hey guys just letting you know this is me and my dad! He got stitches and is perfectly okay,” she wrote.
It wasn’t immediately clear if police had managed to nab the attacker.
The Post reached out to Anaheim cops and Disneyland but did not hear back.
The violence broke out after another scary Indiana Jones-related incident unfolded at Walt Disney World in Florida when a staffer was injured by a prop boulder.
Footage posted on social media on Tuesday showed the crew member getting slammed to the floor when he tried to stop the rogue prop from hurtling toward audience members during the stunt-filled Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular show.
