Authorities investigating Six Flags Magic Mountain after "multiple bomb threats," CHP says

Sheriff’s deputies found no explosive device after multiple threats prompted a park sweep and delayed opening, officials said.

  • On Monday, Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia delayed its opening after receiving "multiple bomb threats" at 7:55 a.m., prompting an immediate investigation by the California Highway Patrol and Los Angeles County Sheriff.
  • Deputies and K-9 units searched the 26101 Magic Mountain Parkway property, which includes Hurricane Harbor, after authorities were alerted that a bomb was allegedly placed at a specific location within the park.
  • FOX 11's Stu Mundel reported seeing SWAT and County Fire crews at the scene, while Magic Mountain officials posted they were "aware of police activity" and "currently monitoring the situation."
  • The sweep concluded just after 11 a.m. with no threat located, allowing Magic Mountain to operate as normal and reopen at 12:30 p.m. following the safety check.
  • Six Flags Entertainment Corporation stated "safety is one of our top priorities," though it remains unclear if the threat was credible; further questions have been directed to the Los Angeles County Sheriff.
