A SWAT team from the Pima County, Arizona, Sheriff’s Department swarmed a Tucson area house Friday evening as part of the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, and three people were detained at two scenes, NewsNation has learned.
Authorities moved in on the home near Guthrie’s Tucson area neighborhood as part of a search warrant execution and ordered two individuals — a woman and a man, possibly a mother and son — to come out; both complied.
A third individual, a man, was simultaneously detained nearby during a traffic stop. The driver reportedly was heading to the property that was being searched.
Close to 1 a.m. EST, the Pima County Sheriff’s Office issued an update on social platform X, saying, “Law enforcement activity is underway at a residence near E Orange Grove Rd & N First Ave related to the Guthrie case. Because this is a joint investigation, at the request of the FBI – no additional information is currently available.”
The residential location police blocked off is approximately 1.9 miles from Nancy Guthrie’s house. Several FBI vehicles arrived at the scene of the SWAT activity, according to NewsNation senior national correspondent Brian Entin, who was the first member of the media on scene.
“When someone is detained, it means they’re not under arrest. The reason for that is to conduct further interviews, collect forensic evidence without having to put the individual into a custody situation,” Chris McDonough, a retired Southern California homicide detective, told reports.
