DEVELOPING: Europe-Bound Plane Makes Emergency Landing at O'Hare Airport
A plane that departed Topeka, Kansas, and was heading to Europe made an emergency landing Monday afternoon at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.
The plane, a Boeing 747 operated by cargo and charter airline Atlas Air, was headed to Poznan, Poland, but diverted to Chicago for an unknown reason at approximately 3:49 p.m. Photos tweeted by Mike Lorber in Sky 5 showed a few dozen people dressed in military fatigues, who appeared to have evacuated the aircraft. Three buses arrived to pickup the individuals, as shown in video.
