Authorities are investigating the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, mother of NBC 'Today' co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, who went missing from her residence in the Catalina Foothills near Tucson, Arizona, on the evening of January 31, 2026.

Investigators have classified Guthrie’s home as a crime scene and suspect that she was taken against her will. Blood found near the front entrance was confirmed to match Nancy Guthrie’s DNA, according to official reports.

Technical records show that her doorbell camera stopped transmitting at about 1:47 a.m. on the day she disappeared, and her pacemaker app disconnected from her phone at approximately 2:28 a.m. These details are being reviewed as part of the ongoing investigation.

Federal and local agencies are currently assessing a new message related to the case. The authenticity of this message is under evaluation by investigators.

  • Her doorbell camera disconnected at 1:47 a.m.; pacemaker app at 2:28 a.m

Authorities have not identified any suspects or persons of interest in the case. The FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department are leading the search and continue to request public assistance.

Family members, including Savannah Guthrie and her brother Camron, have made public appeals for communication from anyone who may have information about their mother’s whereabouts. Their requests have been shared through various media channels.

The investigation remains active, with law enforcement agencies maintaining a focus on gathering information and following up on leads related to Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance.
