Crisis in Punxsutawney

Workers at the Punxsutawney (PA) Library are dealing with what they are calling an escape artist.

Punxsutawney Phil has escaped his den at the library three times over the past two weeks. Officials said the groundhog was returned to his den each time and has not been injured.

According to workers at the library, the groundhog is climbing into the library’s ceiling. From there, Phil travels about 50 feet before dropping into the library’s offices from the ceiling. Maybe he’s looking for a wee bit more excitement than what the library is currently offering.

The most recent escape was last Sunday.
