The search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of NBC’s “Today” co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, has stretched into its 39th day with no confirmed breakthroughs as of March 10, 2026. Authorities continue to describe the case as an active kidnapping investigation, with the Pima County Sheriff’s Office and FBI collaborating on thousands of tips, forensic reviews and surveillance analysis amid growing public concern.

Nancy Guthrie was last seen at her home in the Catalina Foothills area of Tucson on the evening of January 31, 2026. Family members reported her missing the following day after she failed to respond to calls and texts. Investigators believe she was abducted, citing doorbell camera footage showing a masked individual near her residence around the time of her disappearance. The suspect is described as a male, approximately 5’9″ to 5’10” tall with an average build.

Recent developments have focused on the FBI’s tip line, which has received widespread attention. On March 5, 2026, Fox News correspondent Matt Finn shared a statement from the FBI indicating ongoing processing of leads submitted through the dedicated line. While details remain limited, the statement suggested the investigation may be shifting toward deeper analysis of submitted information, with federal agents reviewing reports of internet disruptions in the neighborhood on the night of the disappearance. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told NBC News that investigators are “definitely closer” to resolving the case, emphasizing a dedicated homicide team working alongside the FBI.

Earlier leads have been ruled out. Black gloves discovered near the home underwent DNA testing and were traced to a local restaurant worker unrelated to the incident, the sheriff’s office confirmed on March 4, 2026. This eliminated a prominent theory that had circulated online. Other items, including a backpack found by volunteers on Day 22, yielded no conclusive ties to the case.

The family announced a $1 million reward in late February 2026 for information leading to Nancy Guthrie’s safe return or an arrest. The substantial amount, offered by an anonymous donor in addition to earlier FBI incentives, generated over 750 credible tips among more than 23,000 total submissions. Despite the influx, no arrests have been made, and on-ground searches have scaled back as resources shift to forensic and digital review.

Savannah Guthrie has remained largely out of the public eye but made an emotional visit to the “Today” studio in New York on March 5, 2026. NBC confirmed she stopped by to thank colleagues and express support, though she did not appear on air. The network stated she plans to return when ready, prioritizing family and the search effort. In earlier videos, Savannah appealed directly to anyone with knowledge, saying, “It is never too late to do the right thing,” and urging the public to come forward.

Family members, including Savannah and her siblings, were cleared as suspects early in the investigation. Sheriff Nanos described them as “cooperative and gracious” victims in the case. Authorities have emphasized no evidence points to foul play within the family.

The case has drawn national attention due to Savannah Guthrie’s prominence as a journalist and co-host. Public interest has fueled ongoing coverage, with YouTube live streams, podcasts and social media discussions tracking daily updates. Volunteers have assisted in informal searches, though official efforts now prioritize analytical work, including review of approximately 10,000 hours of surveillance footage.

Nancy Guthrie, a respected Christian author, Bible teacher and speaker, is known for works such as “Even Better Than Eden,” “Holding On to Hope” and “Saints and Scoundrels in the Story of Jesus.” She hosts the “Help Me Teach the Bible” podcast for The Gospel Coalition and leads Biblical Theology Workshops for Women. With her husband David, she organizes Respite Retreats for couples grieving the loss of a child and contributes to GriefShare resources. Her ministry focuses on biblical hope amid suffering, drawing from personal experiences.

As the investigation continues, authorities urge anyone with information to contact the FBI tip line or Pima County Sheriff’s Office. No new physical searches or press conferences were announced for March 10, but officials maintain optimism that accumulated leads will yield progress.

The prolonged uncertainty has tested the family’s resilience and the community’s patience. Prayers and support continue to pour in from across the country, with many echoing Savannah’s calls for answers and her mother’s safe return.

Friends, colleagues and followers of Nancy Guthrie’s work express hope that the investigative momentum will soon bring resolution to this heartbreaking ordeal.

Tokyo — South Korea rallied from high-stakes pressure to secure a decisive 7-2 victory over Australia on Monday at the Tokyo Dome, clinching a spot in the quarterfinals of the 2026 World Baseball Classic for the first time since 2009 through a complex tiebreaking formula that hinged on run differential and defensive efficiency.

The win capped a tense Pool C finale where South Korea (2-2), Australia (2-2) and Chinese Taipei (2-2) all finished with identical records. Japan (3-0) had already locked up first place. South Korea needed to win by at least five runs to overtake the others in the Team Quality Balance (TQB) metric — runs allowed per defensive out — and delivered exactly that margin in regulation play.

Bo Gyeong Moon, South Korea’s standout performer throughout pool play, led the charge with four RBIs, including a towering two-run homer in the second inning that traveled an estimated 430 feet to right-center field. Moon, who entered the tournament as a Premier12 star, finished with three hits and now leads the WBC with 11 RBIs. His early blast set the tone against Australian starter Ju Young Son’s counterpart, as South Korea built a 4-0 lead by the third inning.

Hyun Min Ahn provided the insurance run in the ninth with a sacrifice fly that scored Hae-Min Park, ensuring the five-run cushion required under the tiebreaker rules. Seven South Korean pitchers combined to limit Australia to five hits and two runs, showcasing the depth of the Korean bullpen in a must-win scenario.

Australia, which had stunned many with strong showings earlier in the tournament — including a 3-0 opening win over Chinese Taipei powered by home runs from Travis Bazzana and Robbie Perkins — fought back sporadically but couldn’t overcome the deficit. The Aussies scored single runs in the fifth and eighth innings but stranded opportunities against a relentless Korean relief corps.

The game’s stakes were magnified by prior results in Pool C. South Korea had suffered a heartbreaking 5-4 extra-inning loss to Chinese Taipei on Sunday, dropping them to 1-2 and forcing reliance on Monday’s outcome. Australia, at 2-1 entering the day, needed only a victory — or even a narrow loss — to advance, but South Korea’s offensive outburst and stingy pitching flipped the script.

Moon’s performance drew praise from teammates and coaches alike. “He’s been carrying us,” South Korean manager said postgame. “In big moments, he delivers.” Moon’s multi-hit effort complemented solid contributions from the lineup, including doubles and timely hits that kept pressure on Australian pitching.

The tiebreaker drama underscored the WBC’s emphasis on balanced performance. South Korea’s TQB edge — calculated from runs allowed across defensive outs — proved decisive in the three-way deadlock. Had the margin been four runs or fewer, Australia would have progressed despite the defeat.

This advancement marks a resurgence for South Korean baseball on the international stage. The team reached the finals in 2009 but had struggled in recent Classics to escape pool play. With stars from the KBO League and international experience, South Korea now heads to Miami for a quarterfinal matchup against the winner of Pool D, scheduled for Friday at 6:30 p.m. ET on FS2.

Australia’s campaign, while ending short of the knockout round, highlighted the nation’s growing prowess. The team upset South Korea in 2023 en route to the quarterfinals and showed resilience again in 2026, defeating Taiwan and Czechia before Monday’s setback.

Japan, featuring Shohei Ohtani and a dominant pitching staff, topped Pool C undefeated and awaits their quarterfinal opponent. The Samurai Warriors clinched first place with a 4-3 comeback win over Australia on Sunday, where Masataka Yoshida’s seventh-inning homer proved pivotal.

The Tokyo Dome games drew passionate crowds, with fans from across Asia and Oceania creating an electric atmosphere. South Korea’s celebration after the final out included selfies on the field, reflecting relief and joy after navigating elimination scenarios.

As the WBC moves toward the knockout stages, South Korea’s victory injects momentum into their pursuit of a first championship. The team will face fresh challenges in Miami, but Monday’s performance — powered by Moon’s bat and a lockdown bullpen — provides a blueprint for success.

Broader tournament notes include strong U.S. performances in Pool D and ongoing action across venues in San Juan, Houston and Miami. With quarterfinals approaching, the 2026 Classic continues to deliver high-stakes international baseball.

South Korea’s players and staff now shift focus to preparation for the next round, buoyed by a result that required precision and resilience. Australia departs Tokyo proud of its competitive showing, setting the stage for future international campaigns.

Scheme to include ‘affordable and market homes’

A north Cornwall village could gets its own version of Newquay’s pioneering Nansledan by the same developer.

CG Fry and Son has applied to Cornwall Council to build 49 homes – including 25 affordable dwellings – on land south of Trewiston Lane, Pityme, near Rock.

The application for 2.98 hectares of land includes access, highways improvements, landscaping, public open space and associated infrastructure.

A supporting statement says that CG Fry & Son has completed many successful developments in the South West and is currently working in partnership with the Duchy of Cornwall on the delivery of new homes at Nansledan.

It adds: “We are committed to delivering another high quality development on this important site, contributing towards the significant local need for affordable and market homes.

“The proposed scheme has been designed in accordance with the architectural and urban design principles which have been used in numerous successful towns and cities for centuries and which have more recently been applied in developments at Poundbury and Nansledan.”

The affordable homes would be owned and managed by a housing association. A total of 102 parking spaces are proposed, an average of more than two per home, including an allowance for visitor parking.

It is intended that all of the new homes will incorporate heat pumps, taking advantage of ‘free’ environmental heat to boost system efficiencies to 250 per cent or above.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Google co-founder Sergey Brin have closed on sprawling Miami-area estates, underscoring the continued shift of tech wealth from the West Coast to South Florida.

“While the neighborhoods they bought in differ, their priorities are identical: safety, security and proximity,” Douglas Elliman’s Chris Wands told Fox News Digital. “These high-profile buyers are choosing waterfront properties in gated, controlled environments with easy access to private airports and Miami’s business and restaurant corridors.”

Within roughly a 20-mile radius, four of the world’s wealthiest individuals — Jeff Bezos, Zuckerberg, Larry Page and Brin — now own significant residential properties. Zuckerberg’s reported $170 million closing on Indian Creek Island would rank among the most expensive residential sales in Miami-Dade County history, according to multiple reports.

Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, reportedly closed on the property at 7 Indian Creek Island Road on March 2, snapping up the 1.84-acre waterfront lot for a bit less than the original $200 million listing price.

OVER $126M IN 60 DAYS — FLORIDA REAL ESTATE TYCOONS SAY BLUE-STATE WEALTH MIGRATION IS NOW PERMANENT

The home features nine bedrooms, 11.5 bathrooms, a “secret” library passageway, a wellness wing with a gym, professional-grade salon and massage room, a 1,500-gallon centerpiece aquarium, a jazz lounge, a 60-foot pool and more.

The home — located three doors down from Bezos in the so-called “Billionaire Bunker” — is still under construction and was designed by Canadian architect Ferris Rafauli, known for designing rapper Drake’s “Embassy” mansion in Toronto.

“From the limestone façade and grand architectural proportions to the meticulously curated interiors, every detail showcases modern artistry and exceptional craftsmanship,” the listing details read. “This classically inspired residence offers endless views, indoor-outdoor living, and a sense of privacy and sophistication.”

“South Florida has become one of the most powerful concentrations of wealth in just a few years and that signals a real confidence in the market. Ultra-luxury real estate FOMO is absolutely real,” Douglas Elliman’s No. 1 agent nationwide, Dina Goldentayer, said. “There’s a network of gravity happening behind the scenes. Billionaires talk, their advisors, family offices and security teams are all talking. And suddenly Miami becomes a strategic base that you need as a hedge.”

Brin opted for the more residential setting of 6569 Allison Road on Allison Island in northern Miami Beach. He reportedly purchased the $51 million property through a Nevada-based entity, Lagoon LLC, which has been linked to his longtime legal representatives.

The home, previously owned by LVMH Americas CEO Michael Burke and sold in an off-market deal, is a modernist, glass-walled property spanning roughly 10,000 square feet. The design includes seven bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms, with sweeping views of Biscayne Bay and architectural elements said to draw inspiration from the Guggenheim Museum.

It’s notable that both Zuckerberg and Brin’s neighborhoods include ultra-secure, private police guards who must register any guests as they come and go.

“Security will always remain paramount for the ultra-high-net worth, and they all will always have their private security detail 24/7. Their choices between Indian Creek, Coconut Grove or Allison Island would be more based on their personal preference of what lifestyle the immediate surroundings offer, and of course, the home itself,” ONE Sotheby’s International Realty’s Eddy Martinez also told Fox News Digital. “How did that home make them feel in comparison to others? All these factors come into play on the final decision.”

The real estate insiders point to Google counterpart Larry Page as the first to sound the alarm by moving to Florida, with his $173 million acquisition of two separate estates in Coconut Grove in late 2025. The timing of these billionaire relocations coincides with a California proposal that would impose a one-time 5% tax on the net worth of Golden State residents with assets exceeding $1 billion.

If such a proposal were to receive enough signatures and voter approval, individuals who were California residents as of Jan. 1, 2026, could be subject to the tax, according to the measure’s draft language.

Based on recent net worth estimates, Zuckerberg and Brin could hypothetically owe more than $10 billion each under such a tax structure, though the exact amount would depend on final valuations and the measure’s ultimate language.

“We believe the catalyst in the billionaire migration to South Florida from California is more about the billionaire tax taking place,” Martinez noted. “We believe these individuals didn’t get to where they are by FOMO — rather, their success can be attributed to a mindset of taking fast and decisive action on what they believe is best for them to move forward and have continued success.”

As Miami real estate continues to surge, Goldentayer argues there’s no clear ceiling for how high property values could climb in the near future.

“I see no ceiling,” she said. “When five of the six richest people in the world are buying homes within miles of each other, it completely shifts the market, and we are seeing a recalibration of an entire asset class.”

GE Aerospace is pouring $1 billion into its U.S. manufacturing footprint as the company races to meet what CEO Larry Culp calls “tremendous demand,” with nearly $200 billion in backlog and engine orders accelerating across commercial aviation and defense.

“People are flying, airlines [are] looking to expand and modernize, as is the U.S. Military and our allies around the world and, given the install base that we have, both in commercial and on the military side of things, we could not be busier,” Culp said in a FOX Business exclusive, adding, “but happily so.”

Culp joined “Mornings with Maria” on Monday to discuss the company’s sweeping investment, which will span 30 communities across 17 states and include $275 million dedicated to ramping up defense production.

Roughly one-third of GE Aerospace’s business is tied to defense, and the company powers two-thirds of U.S. military aircraft, including combat jets, helicopters and training platforms, Culp shared.

He said a significant portion of the investment is aimed at strengthening GE’s defense footprint, calling support for the U.S. warfighter and allied forces a “no-fail mission” for the company.

“We’ve got a role to play, and part of this multi-year investment effort that we’ve made, it’ll be $600 million that we will have invested in our defense footprint over the last three years, is very much geared toward not only raising production, but quickening the pace of what we’re doing for the U.S. warfighter,” he said.

“That’s a no-fail mission for us at GE Aerospace, and we’re proud to be on board.”

As part of the expansion, Culp said GE Aerospace plans to hire another 5,000 workers in 2026, matching the same number added in 2025, to build the expertise and capacity needed to increase production not just next year, but annually into the 2030s.

On the commercial side, Culp underscored GE Aerospace’s massive global footprint, noting the company is scaling up production to support an already dominant installed base that powers the majority of the world’s flights.

“We power the better part of three quarters of all the commercial departures around the world on a daily basis,” he said.

“We have a million people in the air currently with GE Technology underwing. It’s an incredible responsibility we all take very seriously… We’ll need to continue to invest to support our commercial customers. But again, we’re doing the same thing to support the U.S. warfighters and our allies around the world.”
