Authorities investigating the kidnapping of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie in Pima County, Arizona, have found no DNA matches on a glove recovered near her home. The glove, found two miles from Guthrie's residence, resembled one worn by a suspect seen in doorbell camera footage from the night of her disappearance on February 1st. The FBI's database, CODIS, yielded no matches from the DNA sample. Investigators are analyzing additional DNA found in Guthrie's home and working with Walmart to identify the purchaser of the suspect's backpack. Despite releasing video footage and determining the suspect's height and build, no arrests have been made. The Guthrie family, including news anchor Savannah Guthrie, has pleaded for Nancy's safe return and offered to pay her abductors.
