Parts of the Disneyland Hotel were evacuated Thursday night as dozens of police officers responded to reports of a shooting that turned out to be a hoax.

According to officials, the dangerous prank was played by teenagers or young people and only the Fantasy Tower was affected. (via Orange County Register)
