The fire is moving in a northwestern direction, aided by the winds, according to Los Angeles County Fire Department officials.

“A brush fire ignited on the county property, located adjacent to the west side of the park,” according to a statement from Sue Carpenter, spokeswoman for Six Flags Magic Mountain. “Although the park is unaffected, our top priority is the safety of our guests and employees.

The nearest schools to the fire are Rancho Pico Junior High School and West Ranch High School, but neither school is in lock down or about to be evacuated.

“The fire is burning in a brush area closer to Magic Mountain,” said West Ranch High School Principal Bob Vincent. “There is no need for an evacuation at this time.”

The winds are being reported at 10-15 mph.
