Police in Arizona are searching for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie, who they suspect was abducted from her home in the Catalina Foothills area near Tucson on Saturday night. Authorities believe she was taken against her will, possibly while sleeping, and there were signs of forced entry and blood at the residence. Guthrie's family reported her missing on Sunday after she missed church, emphasizing that she is of sound mind and requires life-saving medication. The Pima County Sheriff's Office has established a tipline and is offering a $2,500 reward for information leading to an arrest, with the FBI also offering assistance in the investigation. The search, involving drones, search dogs, and volunteers, has shifted focus from a search mission to an investigation.
