"The 84-year-old was last seen at her home outside Tucson late on Saturday evening, one day before her family reported her missing. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told CBS News on Monday that the scene at the property raised immediate alarm and that authorities believe she was abducted. Although the police did not detail the scene to the press, sources told the Los Angeles Times that blood and signs of forced entry were discovered at the woman's home. Homicide detectives were called to the home, a step Nanos said was not standard in missing persons cases, and the FBI is now assisting the investigation as extensive search efforts have begun."
"She's a dear friend of all of ours. And I know Willie has worked with her even more, but, you know, she's been a friend of ours for, well, since the show began. She was on the show regularly, and Willie, it's just crushing news. And we pray, and we've been praying without ceasing for her safe return. And I can tell you, that's all Savannah is asking for right now is prayer. She's, as you both know, she's very proud of her faith."
An 84-year-old woman, Nancy Guthrie, was last seen at her Tucson-area home late Saturday and reported missing the next day. Law enforcement officials concluded the scene raised immediate alarm and now believe she was abducted. Sources indicated blood and evidence of forced entry at the property, prompting homicide detectives to be called and the FBI to join the investigation. Extensive search efforts are underway. Colleagues and family expressed deep distress, noting she missed church which first raised concern, and friends are asking for prayer for her safe return; she is a co-host's elderly mother and known for her faith.
