U.S. authorities have announced a reward of $50,000 for information leading to the recovery of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of NBC presenter Savannah Guthrie, who was abducted from her home in northern Tucson, Arizona.
The police reported that Nancy, aged 84, was last seen on Saturday night around 9:30 p.m. A family member contacted authorities on Sunday to report her missing, noting that her health is a concern.

A security source confirmed to Fox News that there is currently no evidence to suggest that Nancy is alive. Meanwhile, Savannah Guthrie's family has urged the public to provide any information that could assist in locating her mother.
The White House released an official statement:
"The search for Nancy Guthrie, mother of Savannah Guthrie, is ongoing, and authorities are requesting public assistance. Anyone with information is urged to contact emergency services."
Savannah Guthrie, who hosts NBC's Today show, expressed her deep concern and called on everyone to help clarify her mother's situation amid growing anxiety for the elderly woman's safety.
