One person died and several others were injured on Monday due to an incident on a roller coaster at Six Flags in Georgia, police reported. The incident occurred at Six Flags Over Georgia, about 15 miles northwest of Atlanta, according to the Cobb County Police Department. Detectives from the department's major crimes unit will lead the investigation. Authorities did not confirm how the person died or what caused the injuries to the others. A spokesperson for Six Flags stated that the park and local authorities responded immediately and are fully cooperating with the investigation. 'We are deeply saddened by today's incident involving a guest at our park,' the spokesperson said. Last month, Six Flags Magic Mountain in Southern California announced the closure of its famous X2 roller coaster amid a series of lawsuits claiming the ride caused a severe brain injury. Six Flags recently reached a settlement in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the family of a 22-year-old man who died after riding the roller coaster in 2022. Additionally, three other lawsuits were filed last week alleging traumatic brain injuries.
