Police have increased patrols in the neighborhood of Nancy Guthrie in response to the ongoing investigation of her disappearance and complaints of trespassing.
According to USA Today, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department confirmed that residents in the Catalina Foothills area have reported issues with vloggers and amateur journalists entering private property.
“The sheriff told Guthrie neighborhood residents during a recent meeting that patrols have been increased in the area in response to complaints about streamers and citizen journalists possibly trespassing,” the department said.
Officers have also increased patrols near the homes of Guthrie’s daughter Anne Guthrie and son-in-law Tommaso Cioni.
Nancy Guthrie, 84, has been missing since January 31. Investigators believe he was taken from his home against his will.
The case remains active, although there have been few public updates in recent weeks.
Local media reported that officers attended a homeowner’s association meeting to address concerns after a YouTuber was accused of harassing neighbours.
Family members continue to appeal for information: “We believe it is Tucsonans, and the greater Southern Arizona community, that hold the key to finding solutions to this case,” the Guthrie family said in a statement.
“Someone knows something. It’s possible that a member of this community has information they don’t know is important.”
Police have urged anyone with information to come forward.
