New body camera footage released by Orange County deputies shows U.S. women’s national team player and Orlando Pride star Alex Morgan and Orlando City Soccer Club players being kicked out of Disney World’s Epcot on Oct. 1.
Six people were escorted out of Epcot including Organ and Orlando City players Donny Toia and Giles Barnes. No criminal charges were filed.
The video shows Morgan, Toia and his wife, Courtney, talking with deputies in a conference room. The deputies are seen filling out trespass warnings for all three of them. They are not allowed to return to any Walt Disney World property.
“We didn’t get drunk, we didn’t destroy any property,” Morgan told the deputies.
According to an incident report, Morgan was described as "highly impaired" and shouted she knew the Orlando SWAT team when Orange County Sheriff's deputies tried to escort her and others out of the park. The report states the group began arguing with other guests and workers after Barnes cut in line at the United Kingdom Pavilion pub.
Morgan apologized on her Twitter account a few days after the incident.
I want to apologize for my actions that occurred over the weekend. I will learn from this make sure it does not happen again. #liveandlearn

The video does not sho what happened in the pub. Toia is heard complaining about being kicked out of Epcot despite paying $107 per person for admission.
At one point, Morgan says she did not curse during the incident, despite a deputy calling her “mouthy.”
“Dude, you guys are lying right now, I can’t imagine what black people go through,” she said.
