    A luggage mix-up at Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas led to a couple locking themselves in their room and refusing to come out without compensation for a broken Hello Kitty toothbrush, reports say.

    Hotel staff called deputies early Monday morning after unsuccessfully trying for more than two hours to get 14 bags of luggage that had mistakenly been delivered to the couple's room, according to an Orange County arrest report.

    The couple – Setia Kurniawan, 49, of Australia, and his wife, Vonni Gustimego 44 – were staying in room 7845, according to the report. The bags were supposed to be delivered to room 7854.

    When the hotel realized the mix-up, a manager went to the couple's room and tried to get the bags.

    The couple was upset, though, about a Hello Kitty toothbrush that broke while at the hotel, according to the report. It's unclear how the toothbrush was broken. They demanded compensation, and when the hotel manager refused to immediately help, they escorted her out of the room and held the luggage hostage.

    The manager told deputies the couple was "aggressive" and "confrontational when she contacted them about the mishap," the report states.

    When deputies arrived shortly after midnight, they announced themselves as law enforcement and knocked on the couple's door for more than 10 minutes. Deputies said the couple refused to open it, though, despite being threatened with arrest if they didn't give up the bags.

    Deputies said Gustimego eventually opened the door "abruptly," letting them inside to see the mixed-up luggage sitting in the foyer area.

    As they walked in, she stuck her finger in one of their faces and started yelling, according to the report. The deputy said he pushed Gustimego's hand down and then saw Kurniawan lunge toward him.

    He got Kurniawan on the ground, as Gustimego grabbed the hotel manager and pulled her into the room by her jacket, the report states. Deputies said she then hit a hotel security officer's ear.

    The deputies eventually secured the couple and arrested Kurniawan on charges of battery on a law enforcement officer, grand theft and resisting and officer without violence.

    He was taken to the Orange County Jail and released a short while later on bail.

    Deputies released Gustimego at the hotel to care for the couple's children, according to the report.

    It's unclear if they were ever compensated for the toothbrush.

    You wouldn't believe the stuff they do; have to read foreign news to learn about a lot of it.
    Steal each others seat on the plane then refuse to move back to their seat without throwing food, drinks, fists.
    Light up a cigarette because, "You obviously don't know who I am; no one tells me I can't smoke."
    Try to open emergency doors during flights because "I need some fresh air."
    Throw meals at the stewardess because "I don't like the taste" or "It's too hot" or "It's too cold."
    One even locked himself in the restroom during flight because "No one can tell me how long I can stay in here; I'm rich so you can't do anything about it."
    That's just the beginning of what they do.

    Maybe I'm behind in times , but when did Australians become Asians ?

    I'm lost.

    I see the surnames have a Japanese sound to them , but the story says Australia. Just wondering.

    The names are Indonesian; probably immigrants to Australia or could be second generation. Many Asians won't assimilate fully and keep some of the bad cultural differences all their life and pass them on the the children. Those people are perfect examples. Good example is the Chinese college students in America that were sentenced to long prison terms this week for abusing another female Chinese college student. They see nothing wrong with what they did because in China, as in most countries, the children of rich people are above the law. One rich parent flew to the states to solve the problem by trying to bribe people to get his childs charges dropped, so he was thrown in jail also for offering bribes.
    What these Indonesian/Australian people did at Disneyland is considered normal behavior in many Asian countries.
