Masked-prowler video tops sheriff's list of clues to Nancy Guthrie abduction

Sheriff reveals masked prowler video is key clue in Nancy Guthrie abduction case, generating thousands of tips from the public.
The Arizona sheriff leading the investigation into the abduction of U.S. television journalist Savannah Guthrie’s elderly mother says the biggest clue by far in the nearly two weeks since she vanished is the video of a masked prowler tampering with her doorbell camera.
“That individual is who we’re looking for,” Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said in an interview with Reuters as the search for 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, presumed kidnapped for ransom from her home near Tucson, stretched into its 13th day.
“Are there others? We don’t know that until we find him, or other evidence comes in to indicate that, but right now, he’s who we want. Somebody out there knows who this is,” Mr. Nanos said.
Mr. Nanos was referring to the release last week of then-newly discovered video footage showing an armed man — wearing a ski mask, gloves and a backpack — tampering with Nancy Guthrie’s Google Nest doorbell camera outside her house shortly before she vanished.
“The strongest evidence is that video,” Mr. Nanos said. “That’s really what we’re focused on. We’ve got to find that guy. And that’s what everybody is trying to do.”
Experts have said that investigators were likely seeking to bring facial recognition analysis to bear on the video to produce a composite image of a suspect that they can run against a national database that includes all U.S. drivers with Real ID licenses.
