TUCSON, Airzona — Cops investigating the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mom Nancy searched a septic tank behind her house Sunday, with drone footage showing them opening a manhole cover in the backyard.
Three detectives were spotted sticking a long pole down the manhole behind the house, although no further information has been released on what they were looking for.
An official police vehicle was also spotted outside the residence at around 11 a.m. local time.
A manhole is inspected by a law enforcement officer as the search for Nancy Guthrie continues.
