A Disney cast member and Disney College Program participant, Matthew Eric Jenkins, dies after a suspected lightning strike in Florida, according to reports. He is 20 years old.
Both outlets describe that Jenkins had recently moved to Florida and had only been there about a week to begin the Disney College Program. His father is cited as saying Jenkins had just arrived to take part in the program.
The coverage focuses on the circumstances of his death and his recent relocation for work. Details such as the exact location of the incident, the time of day, and findings from any official investigation are not included in the provided summaries, so outlets do not offer differing specifics beyond the shared account of a suspected lightning strike and his short time in Florida.
