Gingerbread Jim Has Been Found!

From: nh_local_newspaper (gingerbreadjunk@yahoo.com) | Date: 2007-01-26 13:27:56 UTC
New Hampshire - AP

Early Tuesday morning, during a rather long and cold search, and end
finally was near. It has turned out, that a couple from MA had come
up for the search and became instant heros. Through the snow and ice,
around frozen ponds, up hills and down slopes, they searched until
they found Jim.
The Ryan Family come from Carver, MA. A very kind and loving family,
had decided to come up for the search once before, only to get
sidelined by a flat tire while dropping the kids of at the
grandparents house. With determination, they made there way to the
woods of NH to find Jim, and did. We tried to contact them, but no
call was returned.
Not to be over done, The Ryan Family had also helped in the capture
of the kidnappper. A 37 year old man, not yet identified, was
arrested Tuesday. Reports say, that he was walking through the woods,
and spotted The Ryan Family with Jim, when he turned and ran. The
Ryan Family quickly followed behind, only to find the kidnapper
hiding under some bark. A court date has not yet been scheduled.
Right now, Gingerbread Jim is currently in the hospital, suffering
from hypothermia and malnutrition. The hospital didn't want to
comment on his condition, but rumor has it, he isn't doing well.
