<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A man died on Monday after apparently falling out of a roller coaster at a Six Flags location in Georgia, according to news reports.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The circumstances surrounding his death remain unclear. At least four other people were injured. Officials evacuated riders from the roller coaster at the amusement park, as shown in video footage posted on social media.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“We are deeply saddened by the guest incident at our park today,” a spokesperson for Six Flags Over Georgia stated. “Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with the guest’s family, friends, and loved ones. We are also providing support to the guests and team members affected.”</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“The park team and local authorities responded immediately, and we are cooperating fully with local authorities as they complete their investigation,” the spokesperson added. “Out of respect for the family’s privacy, we will not be sharing additional details at this time.”</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Cobb County Police Department reported that its major crimes unit is investigating the incident. The Washington Examiner contacted the police department for further comment.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The death occurred about two weeks after Six Flags Magic Mountain in Los Angeles County announced it would retire its X2 roller coaster following a CNN investigation that exposed more than a dozen reports of injuries and deaths in connection with the ride.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There are no X2 roller coasters at Six Flags Over Georgia.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The 200-foot-tall roller coaster, known as “Goliath,” was halted during the emergency. The man who died reportedly hit the track multiple times as he fell to the ground. The park was immediately shut down following his death.</p>
