The FBI has revealed "new identifying details" about a suspect in Nancy Guthrie's disappearance.

The 84-year-old mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie has been missing since February 1, and both the Pina County Sheriff's Department and the FBI Phoenix office are continuing to investigate the case, with new details now made public regarding an individual previously seen in a mask on doorbell camera footage.

In a statement on X, FBI Phoenix said: "Today, the FBI is increasing its reward up to $100,000 for information leading to the location of Nancy Guthrie and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance.

"New identifying details about the suspect in the kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie have been confirmed after a forensic analysis of the doorbell camera footage by the FBI’s Operational Technology Division.

"The suspect is described as a male, approximately 5’9” - 5’10” tall, with an average build. In the video, he is wearing a black, 25-liter ‘Ozark Trail Hiker Pack’ backpack.

"We hope this updated description will help concentrate the public tips we are receiving. Since February 1, 2026, the FBI has collected over 13,000 tips from the public related to this case."

The bureau explained that each tip they get "is reviewed for credibility, relevance, and information that can be acted upon by law enforcement".

They explained: "Threat Intake Examiners at the National Threat Operations Center (NTOC) and FBI personnel are supporting a 24-hour command post in which dozens of agents and investigators are assigned leads and tips to action each shift.

"Media outlets should direct tips they receive to the FBI. Additionally, we do not comment on tips and information we receive regarding ongoing investigations.

"Continue to submit information to the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or http://tips.fbi.gov to help us bring Nancy home."

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos recently released the images and video of a person with a hat over their face wearing gloves, with the figure appearing to have tampered with a camera at the victim's front door.

FBI Director Kash Patel also posted the images and two videos of the individual on his X account.

FBI Phoenix Public Affairs Officer Brooke Brennan said in a statement: "Over the last eight days, the FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department have been working closely with our private sector partners to continue to recover any images or video footage from Nancy Guthrie‘s home that may have been lost, corrupted, or inaccessible due to a variety of factors, including the removal of recording devices.

"The video was recovered from residual data located in backend system."
