Authorities in Arizona are continuing an active investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie.
Nancy was reported missing after she did not arrive for church on Sunday, leading concerned family members and friends to alert law enforcement. She was last seen at her home in the Catalina Foothills area north of Tucson on Saturday evening.
Investigators say her disappearance does not appear to be voluntary and have classified her residence as a potential crime scene, suggesting the possibility of foul play. Since then, local authorities have been working with federal partners, including the FBI, to follow leads and review any available surveillance footage or evidence.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has established a tip line and is asking anyone with information to come forward.
Limited Details as Investigation Continues
At this stage, officials report:
No suspects or persons of interest have been publicly identified.
Detectives are continuing interviews, data analysis, and evidence collection.
Reports of a possible ransom note are being examined, though authorities have not confirmed its authenticity or released further details.
Law enforcement stresses that many questions remain unanswered and urges the public to avoid sharing unverified information that could hinder the investigation or affect those involved.
Family and Public Response
Savannah Guthrie has stepped away from her television responsibilities, including NBC’s Winter Olympics coverage, to be with her family during this difficult time.
Friends, colleagues, and supporters nationwide have shared messages of concern and encouragement as the situation develops. In a statement posted online, Savannah thanked the public for their support and asked for continued prayers as the search for her mother continues.
