YouTube Description
as posted by the channelNancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie, was last seen on Jan. 31 and reported missing the following day. Authorities believe she was taken from her Tucson-area home against her will.
An email sent to KOLD reportedly included a deadline and a demand for a specific amount of money for Guthrie’s safe return. The station turned the email over to the PCSD, which is working with the FBI to determine the note’s credibility.
"We are aware of reports circulating about possible ransom note(s) related to the investigation into Nancy Guthrie. All tips and leads are being taken seriously and are forwarded directly to our detectives, who are coordinating with the FBI. We encourage anyone with information or tips to submit them," the sheriff's office said.
During a news conference on Feb. 5, the FBI announced an arrest has been made in connection to an "imposter ransom demand."
