As his United Airlines flight taxied to its gate at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport on May 5, one passenger apparently couldn't wait to deplane, WLS-TV reported.

The ground crew stopped the man, and he was turned over to law enforcement officers. [WLS, 5/5/2022]

The Mansfield Independent School District in Texas celebrated with an unusual graduation this year, feting 35 pairs of twins in its senior class, along with one set of triplets.

Anthony and Angela Morka were among the twins who graduated at the end of May, CBS News reported.

"Knowing that it's almost over is exciting, but it's also kind of sad," Angela said before the ceremony. "It will definitely be a change because we're not going to be together like we've always been," Anthony added.

The district held a special event for the multiples on April 29 at Vernon Newsom Stadium. [CBS News, 4/29/2022]
