The disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, mother of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie, is officially being investigated as an abduction. Reported missing on Feb. 1 from her villa in Catalina Foothills near Tucson, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos confirmed that investigators believe she was taken against her will, noting her lack of cognitive issues but severe mobility constraints. The search effort is massive, utilizing drones, dogs, and assistance from the FBI and the U.S. Border Patrol.

The investigation intensified when authorities located Nancy Guthrie’s **pacemaker** near a riverbank, approximately 30km from her residence, prompting dive teams to focus their search efforts underwater. Homicide detectives have processed her home, and the **Pima County Sheriff’s Department** has established a public QR code tip line to gather information quickly. Daughter Savannah Guthrie released a statement thanking supporters and emphasizing that the family’s primary focus remains on her mother’s safe return.
