RICHMOND, Virginia -- Reports of a hostage situation that occurred overnight in the Whiskers & Purrs House have been surfacing on the internet. Details are sketchy at this time because calls to the W&P House have not been returned. Sources have confirmed that Senator Henry Jackson Edward Graves III (D-VA) was held against his will in the cabinet underneath the kitchen sink. He was released at around 7:00 AM on Sunday. No injuries have been reported.
A source inside the Whiskers & Purrs compound requesting to be kept anonymous stated "Last night mommy was cleanin' up the kitchen just before it was time to go make sleeps. Jimmy Durante Graves III had sneaked into the cabinet unnerneath the sink. Mommy made Jimmy git outs and then...she tied the door knobs shut so the doors couldn't be opened agains...then, when we all waked up after makin' sleeps this mornin', we could hear somebody barkin' like a seal. Mommy went rushin' downstairs and, sure nuff, there was the Senator, locked inside the cabinet. Mommy must've not knowed that he was in there when she locked it shut. She wouldn't lock him in on purpose...well, at least I don't think she would...would she?"
No information has been released on the Senator's condition. He has cancelled his regularly scheduled posting of "Meet the Senator Sunday" for today. No decision has been made regarding charges in the case. Stay tuned for updates on this case and information on Breaking News.
