A new video has surfaced on the thirteenth day of the frantic search for Nancy Guthrie’s abductor, which shows a man with a goatee lurking outside a Tucson house one week before she was taken.
The video posted on Ring’s Neighbors app on January 23 shows a man approaching the door of a property 6.5 miles from Nancy’s home with his back turned — and local authorities are investigating the footage, TMZ reported.
Although the man tried to avoid being seen by the camera by backing up to the front door, the Ring cam got a good view of him.
