Wife of N.H. Sen. Judd Gregg Reportedly Abducted By Armed Men


UPDATE: Senator's Wife Allegedly Abducted
Report: Forced to Withdraw Money Before Safely Released



Oct. 7— Kathy Gregg, wife of U.S. Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., was abducted by two gunmen from her home in McLean, Va., today and forced to withdraw money from an ATM, ABC affiliate WJLA reported.

She was allegedly driven to a local bank by the men and forced to withdraw money using her ATM card before being released unharmed. A similar incident happened in the area last week, WJLA reported.

Police describe the perpetrators as one black male and one white male, both armed. Fairfax County police would not confirm that Mrs. Gregg was the alleged victim but a spokeswoman confirmed that police are "working a case that fits that description."

Sen. Gregg has served in the U.S. Senate since 1993. Previously, he was the state's governor for two terms and served four terms in Congress.

Senator and Mrs. Gregg were guests of President Bush at a State Dinner at the White House on Monday night.

They have two daughters, Molly and Sarah, and a son, Joshua. The Greggs are residents of Rye, N.H

Wow! This is the first I heard of it. :o

I am glad to hear she was released unharmed, but it is a shame something like this happened.

Wow! :o Scary moments for her I bet.

One question, WHY CAN'T THE GUNMEN GET REAL JOBS SO THAT THEY CAN GET THEIR OWN MONEY?????!!!!!

I agree TexasStooge!!

I'm glad she wasn't hurt though!!

I think thier twisted little minds tell them that they have a real job.

Yikes, glad to hear she wasn't harmed!!

This is definitely a good thing that she is OK. But it sucks that this had to happen in the first place.

From what I have heard, she came home to find these guys ransacking her house, and was taken as a "victim of opportunity"...the perps may not have known that she was a Senator's wife, for that matter, which places them clearly in Federal gunsights.
