The Happiest Place on Earth is also one of the safest — with police responding once or twice a day on average to the Anaheim theme parks that attract millions of visitors annually.

Anaheim Police Department call logs for April 1 through May 31 show what types of crimes officers responded to throughout the month at Disneyland.

The Anaheim Police data includes the date, time and type of the call — such as petty theft, brandishing a firearm or disturbing the peace for example. The Anaheim Police Department call logs also include the disposition of the case — whether officers booked a suspect, filed a report or issued a citation or warning. In some cases, calls are canceled or no further action is required.

Trespassing involves entering or remaining on a property without permission. Petty theft is less than $950 while grand theft is more than $950. Assault and battery involves the use of force or violence. Drunk in public can involve picking fights, passing out or the inability to care for oneself due to intoxication.

Police calls for lost and found property, patrol checks and miscellaneous incidents were not included in this report.

Anaheim Police fully investigated a bomb threat at Disneyland on May 2 and determined the threat to be unfounded, according to a police spokesperson.

Disneyland takes a comprehensive approach to security inside the theme parks and hotels, at the Downtown Disney outdoor shopping mall and along the pedestrian promenades with metal detectors and bags checks at security checkpoints, according to the Disneyland website. Disneyland security officers and uniformed Anaheim Police officers patrol the Disneyland resort property.
