Tonight, for the first time.

since Savannah Guthri's mother, Nancy. Guthrie, disappeared from her home, authorities carefully choosing to reveal. part of the timeline of what played out. on the evening hours of Saturday night. into early Sunday morning. It has now. been 5 days since authorities believe. Nancy Guthrie was abducted from her. home. And tonight, the FBI with a direct. appeal to her alleged kidnappers. This. is a grandmother with a pacemaker and. medication she needs every day to. survive. To anyone that may be involved, do the right thing. This is an 84y old.

grandma that needs vital medication for. her well-being. >> Tonight, the FBI is taking seriously a. possible ransom note sent to multiple. news organizations, including our ABC. affiliate in Tucson, containing. descriptions, including Nancy Guthri's. watch and potential damage to her home. >> One talked about an Apple Watch and one. talked about a flood light. We're not. going to go into specifics. Tonight, the. FBI is being very careful not to reveal. much more about the unverified ransom. note, but this photo shows Nancy Guthrie.

wearing what appears to be an Apple. Watch. >> We love you, Mom. >> Her children, their heartbreaking. message, seeking proof their mother is. alive. >> The family is ready to talk, get proof. of life because there has been no. contact after that ransomware note or. ransom note went to the media. The note. demanded Bitcoin and set a deadline for. tonight and another for Monday if the. first demands were not met. >> While we advise and recommend from a law. enforcement perspective, any action. taken on any ransom is ultimately.

decided by the family. >> And tonight, Savannah's brother Cameron. releasing this video asking for a direct. channel of communication with any. kidnapper. >> We haven't heard anything directly. We. need you to reach out and we need a way. to communicate with you so we can move. forward. But first, we have to know that. you have our mom. We went to talk to you. and we are waiting for contact. >> And tonight, investigators are laying. out the most detailed timeline yet. Zeroing in on a 45minute window in the.

middle of the night when they believe. Nancy Guthrie was abducted. She had. dinner in game night Saturday evening at. her daughter Annie's nearby home. Arriving by Uber, police interviewed the. driver. Authorities say the family. brought her home just before 10:00. 4. hours later at 1:47 a.m. a doorbell. camera was disconnected. At 2:12, a Nest. camera detected a possible intruder, but. was not set up to record images. At. 2:28, NY's pacemaker app disconnected. from her phone, which was left behind in. the house. By the front door,

investigators found drops of blood. >> Blood on the porch. That was one we did. It It came back to Nancy. >> Tonight, the sheriff says authorities. believe Nancy Guthrie is alive. We. believe Nancy is still out there. We want her home. >> But 5 days later, there are no suspects. >> We have nobody of interest or any. suspects that you would consider a prime. suspect was just not there. >> Is there information that you are.

purposefully withholding because of the. active investigation that might be. leading you in a particular direction? We're always mindful of what it is. that's in front of us and what we should. release and and can release. There's. there's legal guidelines that that guide. us, but there's also um strategy, too. >> The FBI is also concerned about other. purported ransom notes taking advantage. of Savannah Guthri's family during this. awful time. And they say they've already.

arrested at least one person over a. cruel hoax trying to profit off the. Guthrie family's anguish. To those. imposters who are trying to take. advantage and profit from this. situation, we will investigate and ensure you are. held accountable for your actions. >> We just spoke to the sheriff here, David. He said investigators are out. right now chasing down every lead. possible. But so far, he said there is. no contact with any purported kidnapper. and no video to go on. Tonight, the FBI.

is offering a $50,000 reward for. information. The number to call is there. on your screen. 1 800 call FBI. David. >> and of course we'll stay on this. Aaron. Kurski tonight in Tucson. Aaron, thank. you. In the meantime, we do move on to. the other news tonight. A chaotic scene. unfolding in Los Angeles. The images. coming in. A car slamming into a grocery. store.

after a car plowed into this Los Angeles. supermarket. Calls for help coming just before 12:15. at the 99 Ranch Market. >> We do have multiple people trapped. underneath a vehicle into the structure. >> I was on my scooter on my way here and I. heard a loud bang. >> Fire trucks, ambulances, and first. responders swarming the scene, treating. multiple victims. The market packed with. shoppers not far from UCLA. >> And you could see that car. I mean, so. far inside that building,

And. then, as you could see, it's entered. inside of that ranch market and bakery, of which there were multiple patrons. that were inside their seating and table. areas. At least six other victims were. hurt. The injuries ranging from minor to. critical. Building inspection teams now. checking the structure of the. supermarket to see if it was. compromised. And David, sources tell ABC News the. driver is a 70-year-old woman who is. cooperating with investigators. They say. so far this does not appear to be. intentional. It looks just like a.

terrible accident. David. All right, Trevor on the scene in Los Angeles. Trevor, we appreciate it. Tonight, the. deadly crash of a police helicopter. This played out in Flagstaff, Arizona. The pilot and trooper on board killed. when the chopper went down while trying. to help officers during a frantic. shootout on the ground below. Here's. Melissa Adon now.
