New note emerges in abduction of Nancy Guthrie

The FBI and Pima County Sheriff's Department were investigating a "new message" Friday in connection with the abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, according to reports.

The message was sent to KOLD via email and is under review by investigators. KOLD had originally received the original alleged ransom note, anchor Mary Coleman wrote in a post on X.

The station had apparently received the message at 11:45 a.m. Friday and immediately sent it to the FBI and sheriff's department, who were trying to determine its authenticity, Briana Whitney reported via X. It was sent through a service that cannot be traced back.

Guthrie, the mother of "Today" show co-host Savannah Guthrie, vanished sometime overnight between Saturday and Sunday from her home in Tucson, Arizona. The family previously released two video messages asking for the abductors to give them a sign that Nancy was OK and telling her captors that they were ready to talk.

Pima County sheriff's officials released the following statement:

"The FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department are aware of a new message regarding Nancy Guthrie. Investigators are actively inspecting the information provided in the message for its authenticity. While this is one new piece of information, the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department are still asking anyone with tips to contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI. The FBI continues to offer a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the recovery of Nancy Guthrie and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance."
