FBI investigators are analyzing a recovered glove that appears to match those worn by a suspect in the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of "Today" show co-host Savannah Guthrie, according to the FBI. The 84-year-old was reported missing on February 1st after failing to appear for church, and authorities believe she was abducted from her Tucson, Arizona home.
The FBI announced on Sunday that the glove was found in a field approximately two miles from Guthrie's residence. Preliminary DNA test results have been received, and the agency is awaiting "quality control and official confirmation" before potentially entering an "unknown male profile" into its database, as reported by BBC World. The FBI has also released a physical description of the suspect, describing him as having an average build and standing approximately 5-foot-9 or 5-foot-10. Surveillance footage from a Nest doorbell camera at Guthrie's home shows the suspect wearing a black-colored 25-liter Ozark Trail Hiker Pack backpack, according to CBS News.
The search for Nancy Guthrie has entered its second week, and her family, including Savannah Guthrie and her two siblings, have publicly appealed for her safe return. The sheriff indicated that it appeared she was abducted from her home.
