A man accused of stealing $14,000 worth of costumes and items from Disney World got into a scuffle with two Orange County Sheriff’s deputies during an interrogation.

According to WTVF, Patrick Spikes and his brother are former Disney employees who worked at the Orlando Theme Park.



The two are accused of running a secret Twitter account called Backdoor Disney, which showed them stealing items and putting them up for sale online.

The two have made thousands of dollars off these sales, which include wigs, hats, and costumes from the Haunted Mansion and other rides.

In the recently released video, when investigators ask Spikes about other items he may have stolen and whether the photos were on his phone.

When investigators reached for the phone to review, Spikes grabbed it quickly and refused to give it up.



The two investigators quickly pinned him down to the floor and were able to remove the phone before he was able to destroy any evidence.

After being handcuffed and officially detained, Spikes then asked the investigator if he could call his mom.



He nad his brother now face multiple charges including burglary, grand theft, and dealing in stolen property.
