0:00.0	Nancy Guthrie's Apple Watch stopped sinking in the middle of the night. And sources say that
0:06.8	investigators believe that moment may mark when she was taken. Yes, taken. Authorities now say the
0:15.6	84-year-old mother of today show anchor Savannah Guthrie was abducted from her home, abducted against her will,
0:24.5	and police have confirmed DNA evidence inside the house, reinforcing their belief that this was

1:41.0	in Tucson, Arizona's Catalina Foothills. And the Catalina Foothills is a quiet,
1:46.6	a fluid neighborhood. It has desert scenery reminiscent of a Georgia O'Keeffe painting. It's a home
