We now interrupt your regularly scheduled program for this special announcement
[WWN] [Midday backdated to lock down] This morning at approximately 5am two aurors were abducted at the ministry. While the names have been with held, they have just informed us that Auror Ginny Weasley and Auror Cadet Cho Chang were the abductees. It has also been announced that Auror Frank James died in the attack, but not before he was able to provide some information that lead to the lockdown. Our sources at the Ministry will not say who might be involved or if there were any notes left or ransom demands made. There is talk that this could be connected to a case that the aurors have been working on for quite sometime. They have yet to release the lockdown in the Ministry and Diagon Alley and encourage anyone who does not need to be in either place to not apparate or floo in. Sources say they can't confirm what time the lock down will be lifted, but they are hoping for nine in the evening. We have tried to reach the Minister and Senior Auror Kingsley Shacklebolt, but unfortunately they are unable to comment at the time.
