The quiet Tucson foothills neighborhood is gripped by a growing unease as the search for 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie continues. Investigators are meticulously reconstructing the days and weeks leading up to her disappearance, focusing intensely on vehicles seen near her home.
A request for Ring doorbell footage from neighbors reveals a specific focus on two time periods: the night of January 11th, between 9 p.m. and midnight, and the morning of January 31st, from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. The earlier date is particularly striking, occurring more than three weeks before Guthrie was even reported missing.
Detectives have been conducting thorough canvasses of the area, speaking with residents and carefully documenting the vehicles they own. Neighbor David Romano described being asked detailed questions, including inquiries about truck ownership, raising speculation about a potential vehicle of interest.
Several vehicles have already been identified as belonging to individuals connected to Guthrie. She herself reportedly drove a Subaru, possibly a Forester, which was later removed from her garage. Tommaso and Annie Cioni have been observed driving a blue Honda CRV, and Camron Guthrie was recently seen in a white Toyota Camry.
The persistent questioning about trucks suggests investigators may be attempting to pinpoint a specific vehicle captured on surveillance footage. While a gray truck has been mentioned by neighbors, its connection to the case remains unconfirmed.
Law enforcement has remained tight-lipped about the significance of any particular vehicle, including the truck. Despite the lack of public comment, the repeated inquiries indicate it’s a crucial line of investigation.
The response from the public has been overwhelming. Authorities report receiving nearly 18,000 tips since Guthrie vanished, including a staggering 4,000 calls on a single day. The sheer volume underscores the community’s concern and desire to help.
The FBI is actively urging anyone with information, no matter how small, to come forward. They’ve established a dedicated hotline – 1-800-CALL-FBI – hoping to unlock a vital clue in this increasingly complex case.
