A California man was charged Thursday after he opened the emergency exit of a moving plane at O'Hare International Airport earlier in the day and walking onto the wing of the aircraft.
"Our ground crew stopped the individual outside of the aircraft, and the person is now with law enforcement," United Airlines said in a statement.
"I think everybody was kind of a little surprised and kind of doing, did we really see what we saw?" said Mary Ellen Eagelston, director for NBC 7 San Diego and a passenger on the plane arriving in the Chicago area. "I just saw him as he was exiting out and that was it," Eagelston said."I guess he landed on the wing and jumped down to the tarmac or slid down to the tarmac.""He jumped off of a plane?" one officer asked.
