- Authorities have released surveillance images related to the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie.
- The mother of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie was reported missing on February 1.
- Law enforcement believes she was taken from her Arizona home against her will.
Authorities investigating the mysterious disappearance of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, have released surveillance images of a person of interest in the case.
The photos and video, released to the public by the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff's Department on Tuesday, were recovered from the Nest doorbell camera on Nancy Guthrie's Arizona home and show a person wearing a full-faced ski mask.
Authorities described the person as an "armed individual."
"Law enforcement has uncovered these previously inaccessible new images showing an armed individual appearing to have tampered with the camera at Nancy Guthrie's front door the morning of her disappearance," authorities said in a statement on Tuesday.
Law enforcement officials have not identified any persons of interest or suspects in the case.
Authorities believe 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie was taken from her home against her will 10 days ago.
The elderly woman, who has limited mobility, a pacemaker, and depends on daily medication for a heart condition, was reported missing by her family on February 1 after she was last seen the night before when they dropped her off at home following a dinner.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has said that Nancy Guthrie's doorbell camera had been removed and that blood discovered on her porch matched back to her.
"The video was recovered from residual data located in backend systems," said the statement, which FBI Director Kash Patel released on his X account.

The doorbell camera video was released in a separate X post.
The case has captured national attention amid reports of purported ransom notes and emotional video pleas by Savannah Guthrie and her siblings.
On Monday, the famed NBC anchor posted a new Instagram video, telling her nearly two million followers: "We are at an hour of desperation, and we need your help."
"Law enforcement is working tirelessly around the clock trying to bring her home, trying to find her. She was taken, and we don't know where," Savannath Guthrie said as she called the situation a "nightmare."
The FBI, which is assisting in the case, has offered a reward of up to $50,000 for information related to Nancy Guthrie's disappearance.
