A Tennessee family visiting Walt Disney World hurriedly left the Florida theme park over a stalking scare after being pinged by Apple about its AirTag surveillance device tracking their teenage daughter for up to four hours.

Jennifer Gaston and her 17-year-old daughter Maddison became frantic after the teen received a notification saying they were being followed by the owner of the tracking device as they headed back to their car on Magic Kingdom's monorail earlier this week.

The notification showed that Maddison had been tracked over the course of four hours - from 7:09 pm to 11:33 pm - with the location of where she had visiting in the sprawling theme park - all the way to the parking lot.
