Disney officials confirmed that the fire at Walt Disney World Resort on Saturday originated from a walk-in cooler that ignited, causing the commotion.

The walk-in cooler was housed behind the France Pavilion in a backstage area.

The pavilion is part of the World Showcase at the resort’s Epcot theme park.

The blaze was quickly extinguished, and there were no injuries.

The cause of the fire was not immediately known.

The official said it was quickly put out by the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District fire department.

The pavilion reopened to theme park guests in the early evening.
