Authorities say her blood was found on the front porch of her Tucson-area home. Purported ransom notes were sent to news outlets, but two deadlines for paying have passed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-greyDarkFaded\">Investigators have said for more than a week that they believe Nancy Guthrie was taken against her will. (Source: 1News)<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-paragraph articleLinkText  lg mb-4\">Authorities have expressed concerns Guthrie\u2019s health because she needs daily medication. She is said to have a pacemaker and has dealt with high blood pressure and heart issues, according to sheriff\u2019s dispatcher audio on broadcastify.com.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-paragraph articleLinkText  lg mb-4\">Investigators have studied surveillance video, sorted through thousands of tips and submitted DNA and other evidence for laboratory analysis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-paragraph articleLinkText  lg mb-4\">The FBI said it has collected more than 13,000 tips since February 1, the day Guthrie was reported missing. The sheriff\u2019s department, meanwhile, said it has taken at least 18,000 calls.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-paragraph articleLinkText  lg mb-4\">On Tuesday, authorities released footage showing an armed, masked person at Guthrie\u2019s doorstep on the night she was abducted. The videos \u2014 less than a combined minute in length \u2014 gave investigators and the public their first glimpse of who was outside Guthrie\u2019s home in the foothills outside Tucson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-greyDarkFaded\">The masked person appeared to try and block the camera using foliage.
