“Today” show host Savannah Guthrie announced that a cash reward is being offered for information leading to the safe return of her mother, and those providing tips can choose to remain anonymous.
On Friday, Guthrie revealed via Instagram that the reward aims to aid in the search for her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, who has been missing for nearly a month.
“You can call the 1-800 tip line. You can be anonymous if you want,” Savannah said.
The family has specified that the reward will be granted if Nancy’s recovery aligns with the FBI’s criteria for reward payment in this case. More details can be found here.
As reported by NBC correspondent Liz Kreutz, anyone providing valuable information may meet law enforcement at a “neutral location” without the need to present identification.
According to CrimeOnline, investigators suspect that Nancy Guthrie was forcibly taken from her home in the Catalina Foothills area.
Nancy was last seen on January 31 after her family dropped her off at home following dinner. She was reported missing the next day when she didn’t appear at church.
