Cops said Wednesday that, after being called to the park at around p.m., they found Kariem “unresponsive and not breathing” beneath the ride.

Six Flags supervisor KeJuan Taylor told CNN he was the first to find Kariem after he fell and that it had been “genuinely horrifying” to process the situation.
“I have not suffered any physical injuries but it has been on my mind very recently through these past days,” he said.

Six Flags said it would be reopening the park Friday, but Goliath will remain “temporarily closed,” a park spokesperson told ABC News.
Cobb County Police Department’s Major Crimes Unit and Georgia’s Office of the Commissioner of Insurance and Safety Fire, which is responsible for the safety of amusement park rides in the state, are investigating the accident.
