Park officials have yet to release further details, but the situation is ongoing and serious. Visitors are advised to stay clear of the Tomorrowland area until the all-clear is given.
According to Disneyland officials, building materials being used by a contractor caused a reaction in a backstage area. Several cast members were treated on site by paramedics and released.
Five cast members who experienced dizziness and shortness of breath were taken to local hospitals. Disneyland officials said, out of an abundance of caution, adjacent onstage areas were cleared of guests but are expected to reopen soon.
No guests have reported symptoms or been affected so far, according to police.
