PHILADELPHIA (CBS/AP) A reported abduction outside a Philadelphia restaurant apparently was a bachelor party prank, instead.

According to a manager of the Chart House, a restaurant in Penn's Landing, four men -- who must have seen the movie Old School too many times --  jumped out of a van and put a bag over a woman's head, then put her into the van.  The van then fled the scene, reports CBS affiliate KYW.

For nearly eight hours Wednesday, police searched for the four "suspects" who were shirtless, with stockings over their faces, and for the "abducted" woman.

Police found all the parties involved in Atlantic City Wednesday evening, and determined it was all a prank.

Funny.

Investigators said they intend to interview everyone involved.
