Officials reveal few new details about the investigation into Nancy Guthrie disappearance
During Tuesday's briefing the sheriff was asked twice if a ransom has been demanded, to that he responded, "We're following all leads we have. That's all I can tell you."

Investigators have found signs of forced entry at the Arizona home of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie's mother. That's according to a person familiar with the investigation who spoke Tuesday to The Associated Press. Meanwhile, the host asked for prayers to help bring back the missing 84-year-old. Authorities believe she was taken against her will. The sheriff said Nancy Guthrie must be found soon because she could die without her medication. Investigators also found evidence showing there was a nighttime kidnapping. Several of Guthrie's personal items, including her cellphone, wallet and her car, were still at the home.
