AI Summary

medium article 2 min

US authorities questioned a person in connection with the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of news anchor Samantha Guthrie, who vanished from her Tucson, Arizona home on February 1st. The Pima County Sheriff's Department reported an arrest during a traffic stop south of Tucson and conducted a search in Rio Rico, near the US-Mexico border. This development followed the FBI's release of surveillance video showing an armed individual outside Guthrie's home on the night of her disappearance, appearing to tamper with a security camera. While authorities believe Guthrie was taken against her will, details surrounding the case remain limited. A man claiming to be "Carlos" told ABC15 that he was detained and questioned about the kidnapping before being released.
