A glove containing DNA evidence was recovered roughly 2 miles from Nancy Guthrie’s home and appears consistent with a glove worn by an individual seen in a doorbell camera video from the morning she disappeared, according to a source familiar with the investigation.

Following some additional testing, the person says the DNA profile, which matches that of an unknown male, will be added to the national DNA database managed by the FBI, called CODIS, which stands for Consolidated DNA Index System.

Two sources familiar with the investigation told NBC News that authorities are leaning away from several individuals previously scrutinized, including the man whose home was searched Friday night, a man named Carlos who was stopped in a car last week, and any of Guthrie’s relatives.

The sources cautioned that no one has been officially ruled out, and investigators continue to pursue leads.

Savannah Guthrie also issued a new plea to the person who took her mother or who may know where she is, saying, “It is never too late to do the right thing.”

U.S. stars Erin Jackson and Mikaela Shiffrin fail to medal this weekend

U.S. skier Mikaela Shiffrin missed out on a medal in the women’s giant slalom after recording a combined time of 2:14.42.

Shiffrin has one more event to go at the Milan Cortina Games: the slalom, traditionally her strongest, giving her one final chance to avoid going medalless at a second straight Olympics.

The 30-year-old, who won gold in the giant slalom in 2018, has failed to win a medal in her last eight Olympic events.

Shiffrin wasn’t the only U.S. star to miss the podium. Speedskater Erin Jackson, the 2022 gold medalist in the 500 meters, finished fifth in Sunday’s final, five-hundredths of a second out of making the podium for bronze. The Netherlands’ Femke Kok set an Olympic record with a time of 36.49.

Jackson, 33, has endured a rash of injuries and back pain since her gold medal, but told NBC News she expects to keep competing for four more years to try to qualify for the 2030 Winter Olympics.

“I can’t imagine stopping now, especially with the progress I made this season,” Jackson said. “The last two or so years before this year were pretty rough for me. So to be able to come back from that, I mean, I can’t imagine stopping with this momentum going right now.”

Broken bones, burning eyes: How DHS deploys ‘less lethal’ weapons on protesters

Federal officers carrying out President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in cities across the country have shot 13 people with guns. But far more often, they have used harsh tactics to scare or repel those they see as getting in their way.

The officers, masked and kitted out with military-grade armor and rifles, have faced down peaceful protesters and people who have threatened, obstructed or attacked them, with methods that are less deadly than guns but still inflict grievous injuries. Hundreds have been hurt, and courts in at least four states have found that officers used force inappropriately and indiscriminately.

NBC News reviewed dozens of incidents since the spring and found that Department of Homeland Security officers have repeatedly deployed “less lethal” weapons in ways that appear to violate their own policies or general policing guidelines, unless they believed their lives were in danger.

Leadership vacuum at NIH gives the Trump administration an opportunity to exert control

The world’s largest public funder of biomedical research is in limbo.

Of the 27 institutes and centers that make up the National Institutes of Health, 16 are missing permanent directors. The vacancies — from terminations, resignations and retirements — give the Trump administration an opportunity to reshape the agency to its vision.

“It’s like going to battle with half your generals in place,” said Dr. Elias Zerhouni, who led NIH from 2002 to 2008 under President George W. Bush.

NIH has been a quiet, nonpartisan nest for scientific breakthroughs, helping fund research that has led to the development of HIV treatments, Covid vaccines and cancer drugs. But several current and former staffers told NBC News that they worry it will become more politicized depending on whom Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. approves to fill the open roles.

NBA All-Star weekend

The NBA All-Star championship game came down to an all-American battle between rising talents and basketball veterans. USA Stars ultimately beat the older USA Stripes to take home the trophy.

The league debuted its first U.S. vs. World tournament in an attempt to increase competitiveness. World was knocked out in round-robin despite a dominant performance by Victor Wembanyama.

Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves won MVP after consistent scoring in each round. Earlier in the weekend, Keshad Johnson won the dunk contest, Damian Lillard secured the 3-point trophy and Team Knicks took home the Shooting Stars title.
