Six Flags Over Texas closing due to flooding

The Six Flags Over Texas amusement park in Arlington is closing for the day because of flooding.

Park spokeswoman Sandra Daniels says no injuries have been reported in the flooding blamed on a nearby creek that's overflowed due to heavy rain.

Fast-moving water could be seen gushing through areas of the popular entertainment complex located midway between Dallas and Fort Worth.

Water swirled around closed rides and flowed over walkways usually crowded with thousands of summer visitors.

Areas of North Texas have been inundated by water following heavy rain and flooding that's been on-and-off for days.
