A glove recovered near the Tucson home of missing 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie yielded DNA matching a local restaurant worker with no ties to her February 1 disappearance, dashing hopes for a breakthrough in the case, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has revealed.
The item, found on February 15 roughly two miles from her residence, initially seemed promising as it resembled those worn by a masked intruder caught on surveillance footage. But forensic analysis turned up what Nanos called a frustrating irrelevance.
