The FBI has reportedly obtained DNA evidence from Nancy Guthrie’s residence in Tucson, Arizona, according to sources familiar with the case, as shared with Fox News Digital.

Sources close to the investigation have confirmed that law enforcement officers have gathered DNA samples from Guthrie’s home.

A spokesperson from the Pima County Sheriff’s Office stated that they have extensively collaborated with the FBI lab since the beginning of the Guthrie investigation by sharing various pieces of information.

The sheriff’s office has redirected inquiries to the FBI regarding any developments or findings. Fox News Digital has reached out to the FBI for further comments.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos previously said DNA recovered from the scene had not yet led police to a suspect in the kidnapping of the mother of “Today” co-host Savannah Guthrie.

In a previous interview with NBC, he said a mixed sample could take weeks, months or up to a year to unravel at the Florida lab where he sent the evidence.

Other DNA has already been processed. Blood on the front porch traced back to Guthrie. The lab also tested a suspicious glove recovered about two miles from her home, which authorities said appeared similar to those worn by a masked suspect on Guthrie’s Nest doorbell camera.

The glove provided no answers after it did not match any known criminals in the FBI’s CODIS database and did not match any other samples recovered inside the home.

Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, was abducted from her residence in the early hours of Feb. 1.

Investigators and the family have repeatedly appealed to the public for help. There is a combined reward of more than $1.2 million in connection with the case — a million of it from the Guthrie family for their mother’s recovery. The family has asked anyone with information to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
