KGUN 9 reached out to Pima County Sheriff's Department to get answers about comments Sheriff Chris Nanos shared on "Today."
Below are the questions we asked, followed by the response provided by PCSD via email.
Suspect Risk: The Sheriff stated "absolutely" when asked if the suspect could strike again. Is there an updated public safety advisory based on this?
There is no updated public safety risk. When asked if he believes the suspect could strike again, the Sheriff said: 'We believe this was a targeted event. However, criminals' minds are criminal minds, so people should keep their wits about them.'
Motive: The Sheriff indicated that investigators believe they know the motive and that the act was targeted. Can you confirm this and provide any additional elaboration on their theory?
As the sheriff stated in his interview with NBC, he and investigators have theories about why the incident happened, but would not go into details as this is an active investigation.
Utility Disruptions: Is there an active investigation into a potential internet or power outage at the home around the time of the abduction?
From the initial timeline we have, there are certain events that occurred where things go off-line at Nancy's property and we’re trying to figure out what happened.
There is a possibility that the Wi-Fi was possibly disrupted or a power outage. We’re looking into what caused that and if other people in the neighborhood experienced similar events.
