A man wearing a similar backpack seen on the person in the chilling porch surveillance footage was spotted a few miles from Nancy Guthrie’s home shortly before her abduction.
TMZ obtained new video of a man with a similar backpack who was recorded 5 miles away from Nancy Guthrie’s home shortly before she was kidnapped.
The man seen in the new Ring camera footage tried to enter a locked gate at 1:52 am.
Nancy Guthrie’s Nest camera was disconnected at 1:47 and it detected the masked person seen on the porch at 2:12 am
The backpack worn by Nancy Guthrie’s abductor is a Walmart Ozark Trail Hiker, according to authorities.
The FBI is aware of the new video and seeking to interview the man.

TMZ reported:
The man in this video — recorded just 5 miles from Nancy Guthrie’s home — is on the FBI’s radar — TMZ has learned — and the timing of the video is critical.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … the FBI is lasering in on the man in the video, who is both wearing and carrying backpacks … right around the time of the kidnapping.
The backpack the man is carrying appears to have reflective straps … similar to the one the apparent kidnapper was wearing as he approached Nancy’s front door. It’s unclear if the reflectors are on the shoulder straps or the side of the backpack.
TMZ broke the story … the backpack seen at Nancy’s house is a Walmart Ozark Trail Hiker, and that has now been confirmed by authorities.
The man in the new video is trying to enter a locked gate, to no avail. He was recorded on a resident’s Ring camera at 1:52 AM.
So, the video of the man with 2 backpacks left that scene at 1:53 AM … BEFORE Nancy was kidnapped. IF he is the kidnapper, he would have had 19 minutes to drive the 5 miles, put on his disguise, and approach Nancy’s door.
The unmasked man in the new video is wearing two backpacks.
