Authorities revealed mystery DNA on one of the gloves discovered near Nancy Guthrie’s Arizona home finally has a match — to an employee who works at a restaurant across the street.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos, who has faced criticism over his handling of the investigation, insisted in an interview with KVOA that officials had always suspected that might be the case after scores of random gloves were found near Guthrie’s million-dollar house in Tucson.
“There was some talk and discussion that it was police officers out in the field just discarding [the gloves], that is so far from the truth,” Nanos said.

“We knew that at that time, we believed wholeheartedly that those gloves belonged to a restaurant and guess what? The owner of the glove, we found working at a restaurant across the street.”
“It has nothing to do with the case,” he added.

The floundering sheriff admitted that other gloves found near the 84-year-old’s home after her Feb. 1 kidnapping could have a different DNA match.
“It’s a challenge because we know we have DNA, but now we have to deal with that mixture and how we’re going to separate it,” Nanos said.

A flurry of gloves found in close proximity to Guthrie’s home were seized as evidence as authorities scrambled to try and solve her bizarre disappearance.
It wasn’t immediately clear which gloves came back as a match to the restaurant employee.
The revelation came as the search for “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie’s mom surpassed a month.

In the weeks since she was reported missing on Feb. 1 after failing to show up for church, investigators have come up empty handed.
Nanos, however, claimed Tuesday that authorities were “definitely closer” to tracking down the suspect or suspects – as the local sheriff continued to face a wave of scrutiny over his handling of the high-profile probe.

“I think the investigators are definitely closer,” he stressed in an NBC interview. “We got a lot of intel, a lot of leads, but now it’s time to just go to work.”
