“Today” show host Savannah Guthrie’s mother was likely abducted from her Tucson house as she slept, Arizona police revealed Monday.
“I believe she was abducted, yes,” while asleep, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told CBS of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie.
“She didn’t walk from there. She didn’t go willingly,” Nanos said.
There were cameras at the rural million-dollar property, Nanos said at a press conference earlier in the day.
Authorities said Monday they found a “very concerning” scene at the home — and that some of Nancy’s key personal items were reportedly left behind, including life-saving medicine.
He revealed at the time that cops were investigating Nancy’s disappearance as a crime.
The beloved elderly grandmother was last seen Saturday around 9:45 p.m. after one of her kids dropped her off at home and was reported missing the next day when she failed to show up for church.
Nanos described Nancy as being mentally “sharp as a tack’’ but physically limited, unable to “walk 50 yards on her own’’ — indicating she didn’t leave voluntarily.
“We believe now, after we process that crime scene, that we do, in fact, have a crime scene, that we do, in fact, have a crime, and we’re asking the community’s help,’’ the grim-faced sheriff said.
The victim’s 54-year-old TV star daughter Savannah — who has credited her mom with guiding her to success — is in the area anxiously awaiting news, officials said.
