FBI Exploring Possible Interest in Nancy Guthrie Search

Federal agents in Arizona may have found another crucial clue in the search for… Nancy Guthrie …as officers snooped around a possibly interesting vehicle at a Tucson restaurant near her home Friday evening.

Around 11 p.m. local time on Friday, reporters spotted a swarm of FBI agents and Pima County Sheriff’s deputies descending on a home near East Orange Grove Road and North First Avenue… but that wasn’t the only hotspot, as investigators also focused on a nearby Culver’s where a silver Range Rover SUV appeared to be a major point of interest.

According to online videos, police investigated the vehicle and eventually towed it away. Sources tell Fox News digital one man was arrested following a traffic stop involving the vehicle and that the stop was related to a search warrant served at a home near Nancy Guthrie’s home.

It is unclear what specifically investigators are looking for in the vehicle, as they have taken steps to cover their inspection from the cameras with a yellow sheet. It’s worth noting that Culver’s location is only 2 miles from Nancy’s home.

Fox News reports that at least three people were arrested Friday evening in connection with the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, according to a local law enforcement source.

A resident said News 4 Tucson that she had witnessed the arrest of three people during this SWAT operation, and according to an unconfirmed report from a neighbor and officers on the scene, another person had shot himself in the head during the interaction.

When we asked the Pima County Sheriff PIO about this detail, their response was, “We cannot confirm anything at this time” – adhering to the FBI’s request not to comment further on the joint investigation.

As we previously reported, NewsNation’s Brian Entin first reported that their crew had received video from police on the road with a man and a woman of a house, which is also about 2 miles from Nancy. There are reportedly about 20 agents on the scene… including FBI agents.

While authorities remain tight-lipped about confirming details, reporters on the ground are reporting on this operation piece by piece.
