Authorities have yet to reveal the reason behind the vehicle’s seizure or the specific evidence they aim to uncover from it.
Earlier in the day, FBI agents reportedly ascended Guthrie’s roof. Acting on a neighbor’s tip, they discovered and extracted a wired device, which the Daily Mail suggests might be a camera.
Video footage captured by journalists depicted agents navigating the roof’s perimeter before they removed the device.
In an interview with FOX News, retired NYPD Inspector Paul Mauro speculated that the device might be a crucial piece of evidence overlooked during the home’s initial inspection.
“Apparently, the agents found a new camera on that roof,” Mauro commented. “It seems they weren’t previously aware of it. I don’t have further details on why it wasn’t retrieved initially or what it might reveal.”
This burst of law enforcement activity coincided with comments from President Donald Trump. On Friday, as reported by the Daily Wire, Trump stated he had been briefed on the matter and anticipated a resolution soon.
“A lot has taken place in the last few hours,” Trump said, adding that he believes “we have some clues I think that are very strong, and I think we could have some answers coming up fairly soon.”
