Investigators set up a tent at the front door of Nancy Guthrie’s Tucson home on Thursday, according to newly captured drone images.
Officials have not explained the purpose of the tent, but it covers the same entrance where Guthrie’s door camera recorded a masked suspect moments before her abduction.
The FBI made that footage public on Tuesday. Agents have not released an estimated height or weight for the suspect.
FBI Director Kash Patel said authorities are examining “multiple” persons of interest but declined to provide additional details.
On Tuesday, a man identifying himself as Carlos Palazuelos was brought in for questioning while authorities executed a search of his property. He was later released.
Investigators conducted what officials described as an inch-by-inch ground search Wednesday across the desert landscape near Guthrie’s home. During that sweep, authorities recovered a black glove resembling one seen in the surveillance footage.
Nanos told KOLD that investigators are continuing to sift through thousands of tips submitted after the video was made public. Officials have not said whether the glove is directly tied to the suspect.
The sheriff stressed that the investigation remains active and evolving as authorities urge anyone with information to come forward.
Doorbell camera video released by investigators shows a man wearing a ski mask and thick gloves approaching the residence. The figure appears to realize the device is recording before tearing the camera from its mount.
