? Vice President Joe Biden’s 91-year-old mother has been hospitalized after a fall at her Greenville home in Delaware.

Biden’s spokeswoman, Elizabeth Alexander, says in a statement that Catherine Eugenia “Jean” Biden was admitted Sunday to the University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia and “is currently receiving treatment and is in good spirits.”

Alexander did not immediately return messages seeking details about Mrs. Biden’s condition.
