White Water Reopens

MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) A popular suburban Atlanta water park will open Tuesday after closing over the weekend because of a fire.

Spokeswoman Kendell Kelton says crews at Six Flags White Water Park have worked nonstop to repair a damaged storage unit that caught fire Sunday. The park was evacuated after the fire.

Investigators are still trying to determine the cause of the blaze.

Marietta Police Department Officer Michael Gardner says no one was injured in the blaze, which was contained to a building that stores inner tubes near the park's wave pool and a nearby stairwell.

Patrons were given vouchers to return to the park when it reopens.
