The Kissimmee Police Department are searching for the driver of a large truck/suv that was involved in a hit & run with 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 early in the morning around 3:30 a.m. on Fortune Road between Simpson Road and Bill Beck Boulevard.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, 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 involved in the accident stayed on scene, but the truck/suv that hit him first fled the scene. Officers are not certain of its make or model but are hopeful they can determine it from a nearby traffic camera.

Adriel Gist said his family forgives the driver but wants that person to come forward so justice can be served.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. If you have any information please contact the Kissimmee Police Department.
