Disney World guests had an unexpected surprise on Tuesday, when a fire broke out near Cinderella Castle.

Firefighters were quickly able to extinguish the small fire, while guests were evacuated from the castle and surrounding area. Only one injury was reported – a person who accidentally inhaled chemicals from a fire extinguisher.

Authorities say the blaze may have been caused by debris from the fireworks show that launches from the castle.
