Shock Video: Gun Battle Erupts as Hundreds of ‘Youths’ Riot at Six Flags in Georgia
One person was shot when suspects opened fire on police during a riot involving hundreds of ‘youths’ at a Six Flags amusement park in Georgia over the weekend, according to reports.
The shocking string of events unfolded on Saturday evening in Austell, a city in the Atlanta metro region.
Thousands of people turned out for opening day at Six Flags Over Georgia before the event devolved into extreme mob violence.
Hundreds of mostly-younger guests began fighting and sowing chaos throughout the park, forcing evacuations as security lost control of the crowd.
Videos purportedly shot at the scene have been circulating on social media.
After the melee spilled over to areas outside the park, suspects began shooting at police, prompting return fire which led to one person being struck and injured.
“Cobb County Police and Security were able to follow the crowd out of the park onto Six Flags Parkway near South Service Road,” authorities said.
“As officers followed the crowd out, ensuring they left the property, an unknown number of suspects fired at officers. An officer returned fire, striking one of the suspects.”
“Our goal is to provide safe, fun entertainment. We employ state of the art security systems and metal detection, maintain a robust and vigilant Public Safety Department, and have strong support from Cobb County Police who are present both inside and outside the park,” Six Flags Over Georgia told Fox 5 Atlanta in a statement.
“It is incredibly disappointing that our community is disrupted at public events throughout the region by groups of underaged youth. Just like other venues in the area, we are committed to keeping this type of trouble outside our park and off our property. There was police activity involving gunshots; we want to confirm there was no shooting at our property or parking lot. This took place on South Service Road that is not owned or operated by Six Flags.”
An investigation is ongoing.
In 2023, opening day at Six Flags Over Georgia was also marred by fights between “several groups of young people,” according to Fox 5.
