Three people were detained Friday night in connection to the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie shortly after a SWAT team with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department swarmed a home near the 84-year-old’s Tucson property, according to reports.
Acting on a tip, law enforcement executed a search warrant at a home about 2 miles from the missing grandma’s house and took two men — along with one of their mothers — into custody, a local police source told Fox News Digital.
It’s unclear if anyone is a suspect.

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
Police officials announced on X late Friday night a statement would be “forthcoming,” but didn’t specify what the announcement would be about.
Around the same time as the search warrant, agents were seen towing away a silver SUV from a parking lot outside a Tucson restaurant Friday night, Fox News reported.
The SWAT operation came hours after investigators recovered DNA evidence from somebody not known to be “in close” contact with Guthrie from her property.
The unidentified DNA was sent to a laboratory for analysis.

Guthrie — mom of “Today” show anchor Savannah Guthrie — was last seen on Jan. 31 at her Tucson home, which the elderly grandmother seems to have been forced out of early the next morning, leaving a trail of blood behind.
Multiple ransom notes have surfaced since she vanished at the hands of her self-proclaimed kidnappers, but authorities still haven’t identified any suspects as the desperate search entered its 14th day.

A local delivery driver in the Tucson area was briefly detained earlier this week — but told cops he had never heard of the TV personality or her missing mom despite the intense spotlight on the case.
The FBI on Thursday released a description of an armed person caught on Guthrie’s Nest camera luring at her front door.
The suspect is a man, approximately 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall and has an average build, according to the feds.
The FBI also doubled its reward to $100,000 for information leading to Guthrie or her captor.
