A man detained by SWAT officers in southern Arizona during the investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance has insisted he was apprehended on the strength of online rumour rather than evidence, telling a local TV true crime programme that he has 'nothing to do with this case.' The interview focuses on Luke Daley, 37, who was detained and later released without charge after officers executed a search warrant connected to the search for Nancy, 84, in the Tucson area.
Nancy was reported missing after she was taken from her home in the early hours of Feb. 1, 2026, with a masked figure captured on doorbell footage outside the property. Investigators later released still images from that video, describing the suspect as a male of roughly average height and build, and noting a black backpack in the footage.
