Six Flags Magic Mountain Reopens After Bomb-Threat Sweep Finds Nothing

The all-clear underscores how police pause park operations to verify threats before guests enter.

Overview

  • CHP said multiple bomb threats targeted the Valencia park Monday morning, prompting an immediate law-enforcement response before the 10:30 a.m. opening.
  • Deputies and CHP officers evacuated employees, closed the entrance, and ran a precautionary sweep that found no suspicious items.
  • ABC7 reported an all clear around 11 a.m., and the park reopened to guests at about 12:30 p.m.
  • Aerial footage showed a heavy presence, including an LASD armored vehicle near the Apocalypse roller coaster around 9:10 a.m.
  • Authorities have not identified who made the calls, which highlights standard park–police protocols that shift to safety checks before large crowds arrive.
