Authorities subsequently reviewed surveillance footage from the L.A. theme park, which allegedly showed Jackson pushing the unidentified victim, per People magazine and LAT.
No injuries were reported following the altercation, the LASD spokesperson said.
Jackson was then taken to LASD's West Hollywood station for booking and was released a few hours later.
