New Security Camera Footage in Nancy Guthrie Abduction Case – No Major Break Yet
TUCSON, AZ – Authorities investigating the suspected abduction of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie, have retrieved additional images from her home security cameras, though these do not shed new light on the night of her disappearance on February 1. Law enforcement sources indicate that while the images were recovered, they do not constitute a major breakthrough in the ongoing case.
The newly uncovered images were captured in the days and weeks preceding Ms. Guthrie’s disappearance.
Officials close to the investigation confirmed that these stills were retrieved from three separate cameras located at the front door, over the driveway, and in the backyard of Ms. Guthrie’s Catalina Foothills home, a prominent area in northern Tucson.
There is no new video footage from the night of the abduction.
A spokesperson for the Pima County Sheriff’s Department declined to comment on the new developments. The images, first reported by ABC News, have not been publicly released but were described by sources familiar with the case.
This information comes shortly after Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos issued a stark warning on NBC, stating that the suspect in Ms. Guthrie’s abduction “could absolutely” strike again, posing a potential danger to the public.
In an interview aired Friday morning, Sheriff Nanos elaborated, “We believe that it was targeted, but we can’t – we’re not 100% sure of that. And so it would be silly to tell people, ‘Yea don’t worry about it.
You’re not his target.’ No, you could be.”
Ms. Guthrie was alone in her home at the time of her suspected abduction.
While her front doorbell camera is missing, other home security cameras were collected as evidence by the FBI. Previous efforts by the FBI and Google successfully recovered some footage from her front door, depicting a masked individual armed with a gun; however, this individual has yet to be identified.
DNA evidence collected thus far has been inconclusive.
Sheriff Nanos also confirmed that investigators are examining a potential power or internet outage that occurred on the morning of Ms. Guthrie’s abduction. He clarified, however, that this outage does not appear to be linked to a tampered utility box found near the home.
A combined reward exceeding $1.2 million is being offered for information that leads to a resolution in the case. The Guthrie family urges anyone with relevant information to contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI.
