A glove containing DNA evidence<\/strong><\/a> was recovered roughly 2 miles from Nancy Guthrie\u2019s home and appears consistent with a glove worn by an individual seen in a doorbell camera video from the morning she disappeared, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
Following some additional testing, the person says the DNA profile, which matches that of an unknown male, will be added to the national DNA database managed by the FBI, called CODIS, which stands for Consolidated DNA Index System.
Two sources familiar with the investigation told NBC News that authorities are leaning away from several individuals previously scrutinized, including the man whose home was searched Friday night, a man named Carlos who was stopped in a car last week, and any of Guthrie\u2019s relatives.
The sources cautioned that no one has been officially ruled out, and investigators continue to pursue leads.
Savannah Guthrie also issued a new plea to the person who took her mother or who may know where she is, saying, \u201cIt is never too late to do the right thing.\u201d

U.S. skier Mikaela Shiffrin missed out on a medal in the women\u2019s giant slalom<\/strong><\/a> after recording a combined time of 2:14.42.
Shiffrin has one more event to go at the Milan Cortina Games: the slalom, traditionally her strongest, giving her one final chance to avoid going medalless at a second straight Olympics.
The 30-year-old, who won gold in the giant slalom in 2018, has failed to win a medal in her last eight Olympic events.
Shiffrin wasn\u2019t the only U.S. star to miss the podium. Speedskater Erin Jackson, the 2022 gold medalist in the 500 meters, finished fifth in Sunday\u2019s final, five-hundredths of a second out of making the podium for bronze. The Netherlands\u2019 Femke Kok set an Olympic record with a time of 36.49.
Jackson, 33, has endured a rash of injuries and back pain since her gold medal, but told NBC News she expects to keep competing for four more years to try to qualify for the 2030 Winter Olympics.
\u201cI can\u2019t imagine stopping now, especially with the progress I made this season,\u201d Jackson said. \u201cThe last two or so years before this year were pretty rough for me. So to be able to come back from that, I mean, I can\u2019t imagine stopping with this momentum going right now.\u201d
He\u2019s still accusing us of cheating, and I didn\u2019t like it. So I told him where to stick it, because we\u2019re the wrong team to do that to.
The action got heated on the ice during the men\u2019s curling contest between Canada and Sweden, resulting in a shouting match <\/strong><\/a>between the two sides after the Swedes accused their opponents of cheating.
Federal officers carrying out President Donald Trump\u2019s immigration crackdown in cities across the country have shot 13 people with guns. But far more often, they have used harsh tactics to scare or repel<\/strong><\/a> those they see as getting in their way.
The officers, masked and kitted out with military-grade armor and rifles, have faced down peaceful protesters and people who have threatened, obstructed or attacked them, with methods that are less deadly than guns but still inflict grievous injuries. Hundreds have been hurt, and courts in at least four states have found that officers used force inappropriately and indiscriminately.
NBC News reviewed dozens of incidents since the spring and found that Department of Homeland Security officers have repeatedly deployed \u201cless lethal\u201d weapons in ways that appear to violate their own policies or general policing guidelines, unless they believed their lives were in danger.
The world\u2019s largest public funder of biomedical research is in limbo.
Of the 27 institutes and centers that make up the National Institutes of Health, 16 are missing permanent directors. The vacancies \u2014 from terminations, resignations and retirements \u2014 give the Trump administration an opportunity to reshape the agency to its vision.<\/strong><\/a>
\u201cIt\u2019s like going to battle with half your generals in place,\u201d said Dr. Elias Zerhouni, who led NIH from 2002 to 2008 under President George W. Bush.
NIH has been a quiet, nonpartisan nest for scientific breakthroughs, helping fund research that has led to the development of HIV treatments, Covid vaccines and cancer drugs. But several current and former staffers told NBC News that they worry it will become more politicized depending on whom Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. approves to fill the open roles.
The NBA All-Star championship game<\/strong><\/a> came down to an all-American battle between rising talents and basketball veterans. USA Stars ultimately beat the older USA Stripes to take home the trophy.
The league debuted its first U.S. vs. World tournament in an attempt to increase competitiveness. World was knocked out in the round-robin despite a dominant performance by Victor Wembanyama.
Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves won MVP after consistent scoring in each round. Earlier in the weekend, Keshad Johnson won the dunk contest<\/strong><\/a>, Damian Lillard secured the 3-point trophy and Team Knicks took home the Shooting Stars title.
