Officials have not yet disclosed why the vehicle was confiscated or what specific evidence they hope to recover from it.
Earlier in the day, FBI agents reportedly scaled Guthrie’s roof. Following a tip from a neighbor, agents located and removed a wired device, believed to be a camera, Daily Mail reports.
Footage captured by reporters showed agents walking the perimeter of the roof before removing the device.
Retired NYPD Inspector Paul Mauro, speaking to FOX News, suggested the device could be a pivotal piece of evidence that had been missed during the initial sweep of the home.
“Apparently, on that roof, the agents recovered a new camera, a camera that apparently they hadn’t been aware of,” Mauro said. “I don’t know any more than that as to why it hadn’t been recovered, [or] what it might see.”
The flurry of law enforcement activity coincided with remarks from President Donald Trump. Speaking on Friday, as the Daily Wire reported, Trump indicated that he had been briefed on the situation and that a resolution could be near.
“A lot has taken place in the last few hours,” Trump said, adding that he believes “we have some clues I think that are very strong, and I think we could have some answers coming up fairly soon.”
