Tucson Local Pulse: Missing Person Search, Community Safety Updates, and Weekend Events
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Friday, March 13th. We start with breaking news thats gripping our community: the search for Nancy Guthrie, mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie, missing since late January from her Tucson home. A resurfaced 2013 Today segment shows her bedroom layout, and Megyn Kelly on her SiriusXM show suggests it might have given clues to the kidnapper, matching details in an early ransom note. Police released doorbell footage of a masked suspect near her house, with a one million dollar family reward and two hundred thousand from the FBI. Our hearts go out to the Guthrie family as Pima County Sheriffs continue investigating.
Shifting to public safety, no major incidents in the past day, but stay vigilant around east side neighborhoods after a minor theft alert near Speedway Boulevard. On the economic front, with gas averaging four dollars a gallon statewide per AAA, Tucson EV owners like Chris Berry near Tanque Verde Road are sidestepping pump pain, though public charging hits about forty three cents per kilowatt hour, making home setups smarter for long term savings.
City Hall approved a new bike lane on Grant Road this week, easing commutes and cutting traffic for daily drives. Real estate sees median home prices steady around four hundred thousand dollars, with twenty new listings downtown. Jobs are up, about five thousand openings in tech and healthcare per local boards. A fresh coffee spot opened on Fourth Avenue, while a midtown gym closed for remodel.
Weather today brings sunny skies with highs near eighty, perfect for outdoor plans, but gusty winds could stir dust near Saguaro National Park, so limit hikes. Expect the same tomorrow.
Salpointe Highs basketball team punched into playoffs with a big win, and Tucson High celebrated a science fair champ. Mark your calendars for the Gem Show finale this weekend at the Convention Center and a free concert at Armory Park Saturday night.
In feel good news, neighbors rallied to rebuild a fire damaged playground on South Sixth Avenue, stronger than before.
