The FBI has reached out to authorities in Mexico as they continue to hunt for Nancy Guthrie and her mysterious kidnapper, a source told Fox News.
The report follows claims from a supposed ransom note writer that the 84-year-old mother of Savannah Guthrie is being held “south of the border,” according to TMZ, which received the letter.
Guthrie’s home in Tucson, Arizona, is around an hour’s drive to the Mexican border, prompting speculation that she may have been taken to Mexico after vanishing from her home on February 1.
The FBI had given no official confirmation that it is searching for Nancy in Mexico, however a person of interest was detained and questioned in the border town of Rio Rico on Feb. 10.
That person was soon released without charges, but the incident suggests authorities are considering the possibility that Guthrie was taken over the border after she was abducted on Feb. 1.
The FBI recently visited a Tucson gun shop and showed the owner names and photos of people who “looked Mexican,” the store’s owner, Phillip Martin, told The Post on Tuesday.
Most of the roughly 20 persons of interest had brown complections and facial hair matching the masked suspect caught on camera the morning Guthrie vanished, Martin said.
