Delivery driver speaks out after being detained in Guthrie abduction

A delivery driver who said he was detained by investigators in the Nancy Guthrie disappearance claimed in an interview that law enforcement officers had been following him.

The man, who only wanted to be identified as Carlos, said he was driving his Nissan Rogue on Tuesday evening in Rio Rico, Arizona, about 50 miles south of Tucson, when he noticed he was being trailed by a law enforcement vehicle.

"They were following me," Carlos told ABC Phoenix affiliate station KNXV. "And once I saw they were following me, I pulled over. They didn't even have to [make] a traffic stop. I got out of the car and they arrested me as soon as I got out of the car."

Carlos said he was not immediately told why he was being detained. But when an FBI agent and a Santa Cruz County deputy sheriff arrived at the scene, "They told me I was being detained for kidnapping."

"And I asked them, kidnapping of who?" said Carlos, adding that he was told of Nancy Guthrie.

He said that after being detained for several hours and having his vehicle thoroughly searched, he was released.

"Deputies detained a subject during a traffic stop south of Tucson," the Pima County Sheriff's Office said in a statement, confirming the man was "questioned in connection to the Nancy Guthrie investigation."

A woman who described herself as Carlos' mother-in-law told KNXV that investigators, armed with a search warrant, swarmed her home on Tuesday night, claiming they got a tip that Nancy Guthrie, the mother of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie, was inside her house.

"I told them, 'You can go in and search my house,'" the woman said. "There's nobody there."
