Additionally, the department issued another call to the public and local community members for their help as the investigation continues.
"Anyone with information related to the Nancy Guthrie case is encouraged to come forward," a spokesperson for the PCSD, which is leading the investigation alongside the FBI, told the outlet. "Please contact 88-CRIME or the FBI tip line at 1-800-225-5324."
On the evening of Jan. 31, Nancy was last seen at her Catalina Foothills home. The longtime Tucson resident remains missing, despite Savannah offering a $1 million reward-on top of the FBI's $100,000 reward and a separate $100,000 offer for information.

Although no suspect has been named in Nancy's case, there was a promising development in recent weeks. In mid-April, news broke that a private lab in Florida sent DNA evidence, a hair sample, to the FBI, which it is now processing in hopes of identifying who abducted Nancy.
"It can take months," genetic genealogist CeCe Moore told NewsNation on April 19, of new technology the FBI may use to extract DNA from a rootless hair.
She explained, "In my experience with them, I've already helped law enforcement solve six cases using rootless hair alone. And so, I know it can be done. My guess is that because this is not a cold case yet, and most of the cases are where we're using rootless hair, that they will push this to the top of the priority list and get it done more quickly."
In the meantime, Savannah returned to her Today co-anchor duties on April 6, for the first time since her mother went missing.
