"Law enforcement investigating the disappearance of Today show host Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy, sealed off a road near her home in Arizona late Friday night. A parade of sheriff's and FBI vehicles, including forensics vehicles, passed through the roadblock that was set up about 2 miles (3.2km) from the house. The Pima county sheriff's department said the activity was part of the Guthrie case, but also said the FBI requested that it not release further information."
"Guthrie, 84, was reported missing on 1 February. Authorities say her blood was found on the front porch of her Tucson-area home. Purported ransom notes were sent to news outlets, but two deadlines for paying have passed. Authorities have expressed concerns about Guthrie's health because she needs daily medication. She is said to have a pacemaker and has dealt with high blood pressure and heart issues, according to sheriff's dispatcher audio on broadcastify.com."
"Investigators have studied surveillance video, sorted through thousands of tips, and submitted DNA and other evidence for laboratory analysis. The FBI said it has collected more than 13,000 tips since Guthrie was reported missing. The sheriff's department, meanwhile, said it has taken at least 18,000 calls. On Tuesday, authorities released footage showing an armed and masked person at Guthrie's doorstep on the night she was abducted."
