The desperate search for Savannah Guthrie’s mom continues in Arizona, with authorities entering the fourth day of a widening investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, 84. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department announced Wednesday morning that investigators have yet to identify a suspect and are working “around the clock” alongside federal officials and the Guthrie family.
“Detectives continue to speak with anyone who may have had contact with Mrs. Guthrie,” the department said in a statement.
Nancy Guthrie was reported missing Sunday afternoon from her home just outside Tucson, after she failed to attend church services that morning. Sheriff Chris Nanos of Pima County told NBC News that the missing person case remains the department’s highest priority. The situation has drawn national attention, as “TODAY” show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie remains in Arizona to assist with the search and support her family.
Guthrie was last seen around 9:45 p.m. Saturday, when relatives dropped her off at her home. Officials believe she may have been taken during the night and have not ruled out the possibility of an abduction.
