TUCSON, AZ — The Pima County Sheriff’s Department says a second person has been questioned in connection with the Nancy Guthrie investigation Friday night.
The FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department briefly questioned a second man during a traffic stop and searched a home near Nancy Guthrie’s neighborhood late Friday, but no one was arrested, said PCSD.
PCSD described the activity as “tracking leads” associated with the Guthrie investigation.
ABC15 crews saw multiple law enforcement vehicles at the scene, just two miles away from Guthrie’s home.
Additionally, ABC15 confirmed a person was detained in the parking lot of a Culver’s restaurant near 1st Avenue and Rivers Road. It remains unclear whether this incident is connected to the Guthrie search.
Our crews spotted agents taking pictures of a vehicle on the scene.
Agents and law enforcement later used a sheet to block the area as their investigation continues.
