LOS ANGELES, CA — As the weekend wraps up, we've rounded up all the stories you may have missed on Saturday and Sunday to prepare you for Monday. But before we jump into Southern California's top stories, Golden State residents should know that the state just released its official plan for lifting stringent coronavirus restrictions that residents have grown used to over the past year. On June 15, California will no longer require social distancing and will lift all capacity limits, officials announced Friday. Social distancing — a phrase that has become almost household among Californians — and limits on how many people can be inside businesses at any one time will disappear, Ghaly said, and there will no longer be (physical distancing) restrictions for attendees, customers and guests in business sectors." But the state will still require vaccine verification or a negative test result within 72 hours of attending an event with more than 5,000 people.

What's more, a viral social media phenomenon dubbed "Adrian's kickback" inspired thousands to storm Huntington Beach on Saturday for an impromptu birthday bash that was widely advertised as a meme. The birthday invitation originated as a video from user "adrian.lopez517." Read all about that here.
