Nancy Guthrie Update: The Truth About the Viral 'Screaming' 911 Call

A chilling 911 call made the night Nancy Guthrie disappeared has been circulating online for weeks, and investigators are finally addressing it for the first time.

The call, which has been widely shared across social media, captures a dispatcher relaying a report of a woman screaming out of a moving vehicle near Oracle and River roads in Tucson, within miles of Nancy Guthrie's home. "The caller is advising they saw a female out of a vehicle window screaming," the dispatcher says in the recording. "Then it went northbound on Oracle. The vehicle was a dark gray or blue Chevy Malibu. No plate."

For many following the case, the timing and proximity felt too close to ignore.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos addressed the call directly this week when pressed by News4 Tucson reporter Monica Garcia, who had been fielding questions about it from viewers for days.

"We're aware of it," Nanos said. "We found those individuals, interviewed them. It was a domestic violence situation that had nothing to do with this case at all."

According to Nanos, investigators looked into the call the night it happened — not as a belated response to online speculation, but as part of the active investigation already underway.
