A Rio Rico, Arizona, woman told reporters late Tuesday night that authorities raided her home amid the rapidly unfolding investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie – but insisted that she and her family have no connection to the case.

“They’re investigating my son-in-law,” the woman told CNN late Tuesday night, adding that authorities were acting on a tip. “I just have nothing to do with that either. I don’t know what’s going on. They’re just invading my property.”

According to the woman, deputies and federal agents suddenly stormed her residence, ordering occupants out as they searched and documented the scene. “They’re going in and out of my house taking a lot of pictures,” she said.

“I mean, like I told them, we’re not hiding anything,” she added. The woman told reporters Tuesday that she permitted investigators to search her home.

“I gave them permission to go and search. There’s nothing in the house. You won’t find anything because we don’t have nothing to hide,” she said, adding that her family had no prior knowledge of the 84-year-old missing of “Today” show co-host Savannah Guthrie.

“Nothing. Nothing,” she said when asked whether her son-in-law, who CNN reported had been the individual taken into custody, had ever mentioned Guthrie.

“If I knew anything about her…I said I saw her on Facebook, but I didn’t read what was going on with her because I don’t know her.”

The woman identified herself as the mother-in-law of the man detained earlier Tuesday during a traffic stop in Rio Rico, about 60 miles south of the Guthrie home. Authorities have confirmed the individual is being questioned, but no charges have been announced.

Investigators were seen probing a vehicle at the scene as the investigation continued.

Details continued to emerge Tuesday night in the abduction investigation of Nancy Guthrie, as authorities confirmed that a person of interest has been detained near the U.S.-Mexico border.

The Pima County Sheriff's Department said in a statement posted to X that deputies “detained a subject during a traffic stop south of Tucson” Tuesday evening. “The subject is currently being questioned in connection to the Nancy Guthrie investigation,” the department said, adding that additional information will be released as it becomes available.

A law enforcement source involved in the investigation confirmed to TMZ that the detained individual is not a member of the Guthrie family. The outlet reported that the stop occurred in Rio Rico, a small town roughly 60 miles south of the 84-year-old Guthrie’s home and about nine miles from the U.S.-Mexico border.

Multiple outlets, including CNN, identified the location as Rio Rico, while the New York Post reported that the individual was headed toward the border when deputies, with assistance from the FBI, stopped the vehicle. Sources told the Post it was unclear whether the individual was attempting to flee to Mexico.

The development comes hours after authorities released footage showing a masked individual disabling a doorbell camera at the Guthrie home during the early-morning window when investigators believe Nancy Guthrie was taken.

The individual’s identity has not been released, and no charges have been announced.

House Republicans suffered a surprise setback Tuesday after three members broke ranks to defeat a procedural rule designed to block votes challenging President Donald Trump’s tariff policies.

According to Punchbowl News reporter Jake Sherman, the House voted 214-217 to reject the rule, which would have prevented lawmakers from bringing resolutions to the floor aimed at undoing Trump’s tariffs. Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY), Kevin Kiley (R-CA), and Don Bacon (R-NE) joined Democrats in voting no.

“This will open [the] door to a flurry of tariff votes,” CNN’s Manu Raju reported Tuesday, noting in a social media post that Speaker Mike Johnson had expressed confidence earlier in the day that he had the votes to pass the rule.

Fox News chief congressional correspondent Chad Pergram reported that Democrats now have legislation ready to move that would unwind certain tariffs.

The outcome is “a major defeat for Mike Johnson,” according to MS Now executive producer Kyle Griffin.
