Nancy Guthrie’s Tucson, Ariz., neighbors reported an internet outage just before she vanished, and federal investigators are now said to be looking into whether there’s a link between the events.
A neighbor reportedly told NewsNation that his Ring camera surveillance footage from the night the 84-year-old Guthrie matriarch disappeared — between Jan. 31 and Feb. 1, when she was officially reported missing — is “not available.”
Additional neighbors from the quiet community told NewsNation that the FBI investigators have questioned them about an “internet service disruption” on Feb. 1.
Questions are said to have arisen about whether a device seen in a suspect’s pocket via surveillance camera footage extracted from Nancy’s Nest camera could be a signal jammer.
Journalist Brian Entin demonstrated the closeness via X on Friday, zooming in on Nancy’s residence from where he stood.
“This is the distance from where the ring cameras that went offline are located in relation to Nancy Guthrie’s house. It is open desert in between. You can see the roof of Nancy’s house when I zoom in,” he wrote.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Office and the FBI did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Friday evening.
Terrifying footage of the suspect who allegedly took Nancy from her home in the middle of the night showed a masked man, whom FBI authorities described as being of average build and 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10 in height.
He carried a backpack believed to be a Walmart brand called Ozark Trail and wore what appeared to be black gloves during the apparent home invasion.
The elderly mother of Savannah Guthrie was reported missing on Feb. 1 after failing to attend her usual church services, following a night out with family members.
Authorities believe she was taken “against her will” in an apparent abduction, as drops of her blood were left on her doorstep.
The investigation into the kidnapping continues, with family members recently increasing their reward offer to $1 million for “any information that leads to the return of Nancy Guthrie.”
Savannah briefly returned to the “Today” show earlier this week for an emotional reunion with staff and co-stars.
A spokesperson confirmed to Page Six, “While she plans to return to the show on air, she remains focused right now supporting her family and working to help bring Nancy home.”
