This is the parks third fire of the year. In July, a maintenance building caught on fire, injuring two firefighters. Before the parks Halloween events, Mean streak had a small fire and remained closed for the rest of the season.
Estimated in 100,000 dollars, no damage to rides or injuries were reported.
