tt_“HE WAS WATCHING THE STREET.” A neighbor near Nancy Guthrie’s home says a suspicious man was seen on the crucial day before she vanished — walking slowly and staring down the road as if studying it. “He wasn’t going quickly like someone jogging,” the witness said. “He slowed down and really took a long look at the street.”

One of Nancy Guthrie‘s neighbors has said a suspicious man took a “long look” at their street as he appeared to scope out the area on a key date before the 84-year-old went missing.

“He wasn’t going terribly quickly like a normal person who’s getting exercise. He was kind of going slowly, and when he walked by this street, he really took a long look at it,” Aldine Meister, who lives in Catalina Foothills, just north of Tucson, Arizona, told NewsNation’s Brian Entin.

“I’m getting ready in the morning, and I saw him out there, so I couldn’t make out his face. He was in kind of street clothes, not shoes that you’d walk in, and he had a baseball hat really low, and he was kind of hunched over, and he was kind of looking around, and he just didn’t fit,” Meister said.

Meister, who previously spoke out about the suspicious stranger, said she saw him on Jan. 11, three weeks before the mother of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie disappeared.

The FBI has asked Guthrie’s neighbors for all Ring camera footage specifically from Jan. 11.

She revealed that she had spoken to the FBI about the sighting.

Guthrie was last seen Jan. 31 when she was dropped off at home by her son-in-law at around 9:30 p.m.

Her Bluetooth-enabled pacemaker disconnected from her cellphone at around 2:30 a.m. on Feb. 1, leading investigators to believe she may have been abducted around that time.

With no suspects or persons of interest named and the case entering its fifth week, authorities are still holding out hopes that she is still alive.

On Monday, Arizona authorities said cadaver dogs used earlier in the investigation are not currently being deployed.

Friday’s discovery of a woman’s remains along a canal in Phoenix prompted speculation over a possible connection to Guthrie’s disappearance.

But the woman, who was found 100 miles from Tucson, was later identified as Alex Fleming, a 42-year-old suspected homicide victim.
