ABC15 crews saw FBI agents and Marana police officers at the parking lot of a Culver's restaurant.
ABC15's Nick Ciletti was on scene as multiple agents and Marana police officers continued their investigation.
In a tweet Thursday afternoon, the Phoenix FBI office announced that the reward for information in Guthrie's disappearance is now $100,000.
Through forensic analysis of the front door video released earlier this week, FBI officials are giving more details on the suspect in the case.
They believe the suspect is a man around 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10, with an average build.
In the video, he is wearing a black, 25-liter "Ozark Trail Hiker Pack" backpack.
Today, the FBI is increasing its reward up to $100,000 for information leading to the location of Nancy Guthrie and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance.

FBI officials add that they have received over 13,000 tips in the case since her disappearance.
It comes just days after a man was detained in connection with her disappearance, but after an hours-long search at a location in Rio Rico, Arizona, Nancy was not found, and the man, who only identified himself as Carlos, was released.
Nancy's daughter, TODAY show co-host Savannah Guthrie, has posted multiple messages on social media since her mom's disappearance, asking for the public's help finding her, along with asking for prayers that her mom is found.
