In the quiet of a Tucson neighborhood, a single glove has become a crucial clue in the mysterious disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. This isn't just any glove; it's one that might be linked to a masked figure caught on camera near her home. The FBI has confirmed that DNA from this glove could match the gloves worn by the suspect in the surveillance footage. The glove was found among about 16 others collected by investigators. Most of those turned out to be left behind by searchers, but this one stands out. It's different, and it might just be the break the case needs. The FBI received preliminary findings from a private lab in Florida and is now waiting for official confirmation before running the DNA through a national database.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen on January 31, after a family dinner. The next day, she was reported missing. Given her limited mobility, investigators believe she was taken against her will. This belief is supported by the discovery of her blood on the front porch and the appearance of two ransom notes, both initially sent to news outlets. The case has drawn widespread attention, especially since Nancy is the mother of Savannah Guthrie, co-anchor of NBC's "Today. " The family has made public pleas for her return, even expressing a willingness to meet ransom demands. Despite this, there's been no proof of life since the abduction, but authorities emphasize there's no proof of death either. The suspect, seen in the video, was wearing a ski mask, a gun holster, and a backpack. He was caught on camera trying to disable Nancy's doorbell camera. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has stated that this man is the primary suspect in the case. The investigation continues, with the hope that this glove might lead to answers.
