A dramatic Friday night SWAT raid tied to the kidnapping of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie ended with one person shooting himself in the head as law enforcement closed in, a neighbor claimed to local media.

According to a Shadow Hills resident who spoke directly to KVOA News 4 Tucson, she witnessed three people being detained during the operation, and says another individual turned a gun on himself.

The statement had not been confirmed or denied by any law enforcement agency as of early Saturday morning.

KVOA reports:

A Shadow Hills resident tells News 4 Tucson that she witnessed three people being detained during a SWAT operation on Friday night. According to an unconfirmed report by a neighbor, another person shot himself in the head.

This comes after a SWAT situation occurred in the Shadow Hills neighborhood on Feb. 13. A man and a woman were detained at the house, and a third person was detained in a traffic stop, according to sources close to the investigation.

A neighbor also spoke to Kevin Posobiec of Human Events, making the same claim.

It is unclear if he spoke to the same neighbor or an additional one.

The raid took place at a home near East Placita De Graciela and East Camino de Michael in the Shadow Hills neighborhood of the Catalina Foothills, roughly two miles from Nancy Guthrie’s house.

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department confirmed the operation was “related to the Guthrie case” and part of the joint FBI investigation, but did not provide additional details.

Multiple SWAT and forensics vehicles were on scene, and roads were blocked for hours.

Three people were reportedly detained, a man and a woman at the searched home, as well as a third man who was stopped and detained during a traffic stop nearby. He was reportedly heading towards the property.

No official details have been released on the identities of those detained or what, if anything, was seized during the search, as of 5 a.m. EST.

Guthrie, mother of “Today” show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, was last seen around 9:45 p.m. on January 31. She was reported missing the following morning when she failed to attend church.

Authorities believe she was abducted from inside her residence.

The FBI has released doorbell-camera footage showing a masked male suspect, approximately 5’9″–5’10” with an average build, wearing a distinctive 25-liter Ozark Trail Hiker Pack backpack, tampering with the camera.

The FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the individual, or individuals, involved.

This is a rapidly developing story. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department and the FBI have not held a press conference or issued further details on the Friday night operation.

Gateway Pundit will continue to provide updates as information becomes available.
