Punxsutawney, PA. Parents were reunited with their only child today after suffering through a treacherous ordeal. Gary Groundhog, 15, was kidnapped from his home at approximately 7:25am. Marla Groundhog said, “Gary was on the couch watching tv, and I was making breakfast, when all of a sudden, he was gone. I was horrified. And then after about twenty minutes, which felt like an eternity, he just wandered back in."Gary, while calmy gnawing on a log in his bedroom said, "All these people just stood there, taking pictures, calling me Phil. I felt hopeless. Do I even look like a Phil? I mean, come on. Not at all, right?"
This exclusive photo, seen here for the first time, is from a nearby ATM camera taken at the time of the abduction. Sheriff Tommy Lee Groundhog is looking for links between today's incident and a string of annual groundhog abductions, dating back 122 years. Tommy Lee said, "We're building a profile based on eyewitness testimony and forensic evidence taken from the scene. And if I'm right, we have about a year before he'll strike again. The clock," Gary added as he put on sunglasses, "is ticking."
