(AP)Guthrie was reported missing from her home near Tucson, Arizona on February 1, and authorities believe she was taken the night before. Today, the FBI released new footage and photos of a possible suspect at Guthrie’s door. The man was seen wearing a ski mask and gloves, making it difficult to identify the man.
There was also a claim online that one of Guthrie’s neighbors had a son with a criminal history. Shortly after the claim was made online, Fox News also reported that investigators were going door-to-door in Guthrie’s neighborhood. They reportedly went to a house a few doors down from Guthrie’s place.

Why is SWAT traffic?Fox News, citing sources, said SWAT vehicles were involved in Guthrie’s case. However, it is not clear where the vehicles have gone.

TMZ reported earlier today that authorities believe the kidnapper is from the Tucson area. Sources involved in the investigation told the publication that the operating theory was that the ransom notes were written by the kidnapper and provided clues to law enforcement about where the person lived.
Notably, the FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department have not yet named suspects or persons of interest in the case.
Meanwhile, a person at X claims “the teams sent around Annie may be a distraction to keep the media away from wherever SWAT is going.” Others expressed hope that this might mean the case was closer to being solved and that Guthrie could be found.
Investigators stressed that time was of the essence in this case because Guthrie could not do well without his daily medication, which was left at home. Reports show Guthrie has high blood pressure, heart problems and uses a pacemaker.
