Chilling 911 Call Night of Nancy Guthrie Disappearance Surfaces

A chilling new development has emerged in the disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, the mother of “Today” show co-host Savannah Guthrie, as previously undisclosed 911 audio raises fresh and troubling questions.

The recording, first revealed by the syndicated program Inside Edition, captures a frantic late-night call reporting a woman screaming from a moving vehicle — just hours after Nancy was believed to have vanished.

Host Eva Pilgrim told viewers that “an avalanche of tips” has poured in since Savannah increased the reward for information leading to her mother’s recovery to $1 million earlier this week.

“And now this. A mystery 911 call made the night of the kidnapping. A woman screams for help. The question: was it Nancy? Here is Jim Moret,” Pilgrim said.

Correspondent Jim Moret then detailed the disturbing report.

“We are now learning that a chilling 911 call was made to police the night Nancy Guthrie was kidnapped. After receiving a 911 call, a police dispatcher sent out an alert about a woman hanging out of a window of a car, and she was screaming,” Moret explained before playing the audio.

“A car drove by my house, female out of the vehicle window screaming. The vehicle was a dark Chevy Malibu. The female was hanging out of the window, wearing all black. The door was also open,” the caller said.

The alert reportedly went out shortly after 2:00 a.m., and the caller’s location was just three miles from Nancy’s Tucson home.

“Was the woman in the car 84-year-old Nancy? The alert went out shortly after 2:00 A.M. The location given by the undetermined 911 caller is just 3 miles from her house. The disturbing call was revealed last night by Nancy Grace,” Moret continued, referencing coverage by Nancy Grace.

“Is it connected? We don’t know. But it is close to her home, around the time she was taken. We can’t really discount anything,” Grace said.

Meanwhile, volunteers have intensified search efforts in Tucson, focusing in part on the network of flash flood drainage tunnels beneath the city.

Moret reported that he spoke with Brian Entin, a correspondent for NewsNation, who personally entered one of the larger tunnels near Nancy’s neighborhood.

“There are the tunnels that go beneath Tucson, in the area where Nancy lives, in the footholds. They go under roadways, under neighborhoods. There are drainage tunnels when they are a lot of rain in the area. Right now, they are totally empty. I went into the tunnels. There’s a lot of homeless people that stay down there but volunteers have been looking in the tunnels, just in case there could be any evidence down there or any sign of Nancy,” Entin reported.

Separately, an Arizona couple told local outlet KVOA that they discovered a pair of black gloves and a rock with what appeared to be dried blood roughly one mile from Nancy’s home in the Catalina Foothills area.

The couple said the gloves were found about 10 feet apart off Campbell Avenue on February 11. One glove appeared torn, with what looked like blood near the wrist and index finger. They also observed what appeared to be a dried droplet of blood on a rock beneath one glove. Fearing contamination of potential evidence, they did not touch the items and instead alerted authorities.

Investigators reportedly remained at the scene until about 2 a.m. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department declined to confirm whether the gloves were among those collected for DNA testing.

“We cannot confirm at this time. Detectives and agents have collected multiple gloves from the area, and analysis is part of the investigation,” the department said.

Authorities have previously stated that DNA recovered from gloves in the area did not match any profiles in the FBI database and did not match DNA collected from inside Nancy Guthrie’s home.

With a $1 million reward now on the table and new audio evidence surfacing, pressure continues to mount on investigators to determine whether the haunting 911 call is a critical clue — or a tragic coincidence.

For Nancy’s family and a growing community of concerned citizens, one question remains painfully unanswered: where is Nancy Guthrie?
