Nancy Guthrie’s search continues as deadline approaches in second week
ie’s home, police found signs of a break-in, and Guthrie’s phone was missing. But there were no signs of a struggle. Despite clear skies on the night Guthrie disappeared, the weather turned wintry later that Sunday, complicating search efforts. That same day, a neighbor reported hearing a car leave Guthrie’s home at an unusual time. On Tuesday, police in Arizona identified a car they believe could be tied to the case. The tan or gold 2008 Honda Accord has Arizona license plates. Janke said the FBI is seeking information about the car and whether it was spotted, with or without a driver, between Sunday and Tuesday. Last week, Janke said that a person who’s responsible for an abduction is “scared just like the family of the abducted.” “They are the people who get paid off if the right proof is presented to the right people,” Janke added. “We want to connect. We want to talk face-to-face. We need to know that she’s still alive.” Police and the FBI have also reassured Nancy Guthrie’s family that they still believe the 84-year-old is alive. “We are really encouraged to see law enforcement focused on this case,” Camron Guthrie said. A reward of up to $50,000 is being offered for information leading to the location of Nancy Guthrie, officials say. They add that tips and information can be anonymous and confidential. In the meantime, relatives and friends are gathering near Nancy Guthrie’s home, offering messages of support and prayers for the family, the police and the community. A tip line is available for anyone with information about the case. People are urged to call 911 or the FBI Tip Line at 1-800-CALLFBI (1-800-225-5324) with any information that might help locate Nancy Guthrie or learn more about what happened the night she disappeared.
