BUENA PARK, Calif. (KABC) -- The Orange County Health Care Agency temporarily closed Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant at Knott's Berry Farm Thursday because of a cockroach infestation.

"The issue was contained to utility areas and had no impact on food preparation or guest dining areas," Knott's Berry Farm said in a statement.
