The mother of U.S. journalist and television host Savannah Guthrie is believed to have been abducted, according to local authorities in Arizona. The 84-year-old, Nancy Guthrie, vanished from her home near Tucson, prompting a missing person investigation over the weekend.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told CBS News that he is convinced Nancy Guthrie could not have left her residence on her own, characterizing her disappearance as a potential abduction. Last seen on Saturday night during a visit from her children, she was reported missing the following Sunday afternoon.

Concern heightens as Nancy Guthrie has limited mobility and requires daily medication. Savannah Guthrie did not appear on her regular NBC 'Today' show segment, focusing instead on efforts for her mother's safe return.
