The park employee asked Smith to get out of line by saying, “Then you’ll think it’s hilarious if I asked you to step out of the line.” When Smith refused that’s when things got physical, police say. Smith is accused of punching the man twice, once in the temple and once in the jaw. The Disney employee was treated for a concussion after receiving a CT scan at Orlando Health-Horizon West hospital in Winter Garden, just north of Orlando, reports People Magazine.

TMZ reports that Smith’s son told officers that his father only struck the Disney employee by accident after he lost his balance. TMZ quoted Smith’s son as saying his father “lost his balance falling to the ground” and hit the employee as he was trying to grab something.
