Three Walt Disney World employees have been placed on paid leave as part of the investigation into a monorail crash which killed a 21-year-old train operator over the weekend.
A Disney spokeswoman said Thursday that the paid leave is not disciplinary action but part of the investigative process.
The employees are a monorail shop worker, the operator of one of the trains involved in the collision and a transportation manager.
The accident killed college student Austin Wuennenberg.
It is being investigated by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office and two federal agencies, including the National Transportation Safety Board.
The NTSB has said no mechanical problems were found with the trains or track.
