Guthrie kidnapping suspect reportedly scouted the home before abduction

The man suspected of kidnapping Nancy Guthrie apparently visited her southern Arizona home before the February 1 abduction, with doorbell-camera footage released on Feb. 10 showing an armed man in a backpack and ski mask in the predawn hours. ABC News reported another image of the suspect near the home prior to the disappearance. Investigators say the suspect may have been surprised by the doorbell cam during the first visit and altered his plan on the return trip, attempting to obscure the camera with foliage. A $200,000 reward remains for information leading to Guthrie’s return, and neighbors have been asked to review security footage dating back to January.
