The park experienced an "interruption in its power supply" around 1:45 p.m. ET, the spokesperson said. The outage was caused when a car struck a power pole, according to the spokesperson.

All rides that were affected by the outage safely came to a stop, the spokesperson added.

Ohio Edison said it was addressing the issue and would restore power as quickly as possible.
