DNA Clue Found in High-Profile Kidnapping Case

DNA from a glove found near Nancy Guthrie's home matches a prowler seen before her abduction. Investigators await official confirmation while seeking the primary suspect seen in video footage near Guthrie's home. The case, now in its third week, has attracted significant media and public attention.

The FBI has obtained a DNA sample from a glove discovered near the home of Nancy Guthrie in Arizona, which matches the pair worn by a masked prowler seen in doorbell camera footage prior to her abduction two weeks ago, officials announced Sunday.

The glove is one of 16 found near Guthrie's Tucson-area home, but only one shows a DNA profile distinct from others likely dropped by searchers. The DNA discovery comes as the search for 84-year-old Guthrie enters its third week, amid high-profile media attention.

While no arrests have been made, sheriff deputies and FBI agents executed a search warrant at a nearby home, seeking leads in the case. Family members, including NBC's Savannah Guthrie, have made public pleas for her mother's safe return.
