A Brunswick man is accused of going on a drunken tirade at Walt Disney World, racking up 11 complaints from other visitors in just four hours.

Brian Keith Olmstead, 35, used a stroller to plow through crowds at Disney's Art of Animation Resort on Sunday, according to WKMG in Orlando.

Olmstead's neighbors told News 5 that it wasn't the first time there has been an incident relating to intoxication.

"I'm fearful for this neighborhood," Kim Andrysek, Olmstead's neighbor, said.  
 
No one answered at his Brunswick address to give his side of the story, but neighbors talked to News 5.
 
"He did wake up the neighborhood at 2 in the morning when he took out the tree on our front lawn," Andrysek said.
 
That's the crash that led to a DUI charge News 5 found on Olmstead's record.
 
"If the tree wasn't there, I dread to think he would have gone right into our house," she said.
 
He was also allegedly using racial slurs while at the park.

Witnesses reportedly told police Olmstead sat at a poolside bar with his young son in a stroller next to him and "drank himself into 'a state of intoxication,'" WKMG reports. 

A resort manager told police the man was escorted to his room but then returned to the food court area and started threatening people with violence.

Deputies said the Olmstead's child had been sitting in a dirty diaper for hours and his legs and feet were badly sunburned. 

Olmstead was arrested on a child neglect charge and posted $2,200 bond late Monday, according to WKMG.
