Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance has left her Arizona neighborhood on edge, with one neighbor recounting an unsettling sighting of a white van shortly before the 84-year-old went missing.

Brett McIntire, a 72-year-old resident of the area, noticed the van on their street and found it peculiar, primarily because it lacked any commercial branding—a common feature on most work vehicles. Concerned, McIntire reported his observation to the police, as he shared with the New York Post.

“It was a full-sized white van with no markings on the sides, parked right on the street,” McIntire described. His report to the authorities included basic details about the vehicle, which he had seen just days before Nancy vanished.

This incident has left McIntire more vigilant than ever. He now carries a notepad and pen on his neighborhood walks, prepared to document any other suspicious activities he might encounter, he mentioned to the Post.

The unsettling experience has also affected his wife, Lisa, who is contemplating installing security cameras around their home, despite already having robust security measures like heavy metal doors.

It also spooked his wife, Lisa, who is now considering buying security cameras for their home, despite having heavy metal doors. 

‘I’m kind of a deep sleeper,’ she told The Post, despite acknowledging that they have a ‘pretty secure residence.’ 

‘It’s unlikely someone could get past one of the metal doors, but we’re a little concerned,’ she said. 

Nancy Guthrie’s neighbor said he saw a suspicious white van on their street days before she disappeared. The mother of Today host Savannah Guthrie has been missing since Sunday

The $1 million property in Tucson, Arizona, where Nancy was last seen

Nancy, who is the mother of Today Show host Savannah Guthrie, vanished from her $1 million home in Tucson last weekend. 

Authorities think she was taken against her will as her doorbell camera was disconnected around 2am on Sunday. 

Software data recorded movement at the home at 2.12am, which police acknowledge could have come from a person or animal. 

Nancy did not have an active subscription with the doorbell app, so the company was unable to recover any footage.

Then, at 2.28am, the app on her pacemaker was disconnected from her phone. 

Nancy was reported missing shortly before noon Sunday after she didn’t show up at a church.

While she is able to drive and her mind is sharp, the Pima County sheriff said she has difficulty walking even short distances.

She requires daily medicine vital to her health, has high blood pressure and heart issues, police have said.

It is now six days into the desperate search for the grandmother, but authorities have not identified any suspects or persons of interest.

Police believe she was abducted from her home after her doorbell camera was turned off and her pacemaker was disconnected from her phone 

The FBI has been at Nancy’s home this week as the search for her continues

Nancy’s children, Annie, the Today Show host and Camron, are begging for her safe return 

DNA tests showed blood found on Nancy’s front porch was a match to her, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said.

‘Right now, we believe Nancy is still out there. We want her home,’ Nanos said at a news conference earlier Thursday. He acknowledged, however, that authorities have no evidence she is unharmed.

Law enforcement is bringing more resources and people into the investigation, and the FBI announced Thursday it was offering up to $50,000 for information.

President Donald Trump said he has spoken with Guthrie and posted on social media that he was directing federal authorities to help where they can. 

She has been off work since her mother’s abduction and has dropped out of hosting NBC’s coverage of the Milan Winter Olympics, which begins on Friday.

She joined her two siblings in an emotional plea on social media on Wednesday to say they’re ready to talk to whoever sent the ransom notes.

‘We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you and we are ready to listen. Please reach out to us,’ she said while fighting off tears.

With her voice cracking, she addressed her mother directly, saying the family was praying for her and that people were looking for her. She was flanked by her brother Camron and their sister, Annie.

‘Mamma, If you’re listening, we need you to come home. We miss you,’ Annie added.

The Daily Mail has contacted the Pima County Sheriff’s Department for comment.
