The Arizona sheriff investigating the disappearance of “Today” show anchor Savannah Guthrie’s mother confirmed that gloves were discovered in connection with the case and denied reports that he withheld evidence from the FBI.

There were “quite a number of them,” Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said during a Feb. 12 interview with KVOA-TV, referring to gloves that were found. “We don’t even know the true value of these gloves.”
