Deadly Georgia coaster incident forces closure of Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure in NJ

Six Flags has temporarily closed nine roller coasters across the country after a man died falling from the Goliath ride in Georgia, an incident that brings renewed scrutiny to rides sharing the same name, including one that experienced a high-profile malfunction at Six Flags New England in Massachusetts. The closures hit nine roller coasters at amusement parks nationwide. Park officials said the closures were temporary and made "out of an abundance of caution."

Monday's deadly roller coaster incident at at a Six Flags amusement park in Georgia has forced a similar roller coaster in New Jersey to close.
