Investigators from the FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department have initiated door-to-door canvassing in neighborhoods connected to the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of NBC “Today” show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie. The latest search began after police released videos of a masked suspect for the first time since Guthrie’s February 1 disappearance.
Officers have been seen searching areas around Guthrie’s home in Tucson, Arizona, as well as the neighborhood of her daughter Annie Guthrie, where Nancy had dinner the night before she vanished. Activities include checking brush and backyard sheds, speaking with residents and businesses, and requesting reviews of home security cameras for any relevant recordings.
According to footage obtained by on-the-ground reporters, the investigators appear to be with the FBI. Federal agents were also seen canvassing homes in the neighborhood on February 6.
Footage obtained by the Associated Press shows agents speaking with neighbors, then proceeding to search properties with a particular focus on brush areas.

The latest search efforts come hours after investigators released photo and video evidence showing a potential suspect at Nancy Guthrie’s front door. The footage was recovered through collaboration with private sector partners, which allowed federal investigators to access residual data from backend systems after the property’s doorbell camera was tampered with.
Footage shows a masked, armed individual wearing a jacket and a backpack approaching the door. They then grabbed a clump of grass in an effort to block the camera.
Close-up frames reveal the suspect’s eyes, eyebrows, and possible dark facial hair, such as a mustache. No vehicle is seen in the footage.
The door-to-door efforts aim to identify the suspect by collecting neighboring camera footage that might capture the individual’s approach, departure, or vehicle. Investigators had previously disclosed that a trespassing incident was reported not far from Guthrie’s home in late January, though they have not provided any details on whether that incident was related.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen on January 31, after dinner at Annie’s home with her son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni, who dropped her off around 9:48 p.m. Her garage door closed shortly after. She was reported missing the next day when she failed to join an online church service.
Authorities found signs of a struggle, including her blood at the home, and her pacemaker disconnected from its monitoring app around 2 a.m. on February 1, the same time the doorbell camera went offline.
The case is treated as a kidnapping after a $6 million bitcoin ransom demand was sent to media outlets, though its authenticity remains unconfirmed. The deadline passed on February 9 without payment or updates on communications.
Federal investigators are currently offering a $50,000 reward for any information that leads to Guthrie’s return.
