Another possible development in theNancy Guthrie abduction case today ... investigators have found a black glove in the area where she was last seen that could bring them one step closer to nabbing the masked suspect who allegedly took her.
An FBI agent plucked the glove from the side of a road about 1.5 miles from Nancy's Tucson-area house ... The Post was the first to report the discovery.
Yesterday, the FBI released images and video of the alleged kidnapper, wearing a ski mask, a backpack, and gloves ... which appeared to be black. The person also had what looked like a holstered gun on the front of their waist.
A rep for the Travis County Medical Examiner's Office in Texas says ... it was reported to them at 6:44 AM. No cause of death was given.

The FBI and the Pima County Sheriff's Department are homing in on the outfit the presumed kidnapper wore as he approached Nancy Guthrie's front door, and they are on the hunt for who bought the items ... law enforcement sources involved in the investigation tell TMZ.
Our sources singled out 3 items -- the gloves, the backpack, and the gun visible on the Nest video.
We're told authorities are contacting manufacturers and retailers to figure out who may have purchased the items.
BTW ... we've determined the holster in question appears to be polyester, which is typically used for carrying a revolver ... but in this case the weapon looks like a semi-automatic handgun.
There's a new note in the Nancy Guthrie case, but this one doesn't seem to be from the kidnapper ... instead, it's from someone offering to give up information on the kidnapper.
TMZ.com
TMZ received the note just before 5 AM PT, and the sender claims they've tried unsuccessfully to reach Savannah Guthrie's brother, Camron, and her sister, Annie, by email and text. The note goes on, "If they want the name of the individual involved then I want 1 Bitcoin to the following wallet. Time is more than relevant."
There is a legitimate bitcoin address in the note ... and it is a different address from the one in the original ransom note, received by TMZ and 2 Tucson TV news stations.
We have forwarded this note to the FBI.
It's unclear if the sender of this note is legit, but interestingly, 1 bitcoin is worth about $66,000 right now. You'll recall law enforcement is currently offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to Nancy's kidnappers.
This comes less than 24 hours after a flurry of activity in the case -- on Tuesday, the FBI released the first images of the armed individual who showed up on Nancy's doorstep early in the morning of Feb. 1, the day she was taken.
Then, in the evening, cops detained a person of interest ... a deliveryman who was pulled over in a Tucson suburb. After questioning him, though, law enforcement released the man, who told reporters he didn't even know who Nancy was.
