President Donald Trump claims he's heard encouraging news in the search for Nancy Guthrie.
Talking to reporters on Air Force One Friday, Trump said he believes a "solution" could be possible soon.
"I think we're doing very well on that regard. You're probably surprised to hear that. I think we're doing very well, very well, meaning we have some clues, I think that are very strong, and I think we could have some answers coming up fairly soon," Trump said.
The statement came as authorities ended day six of the search for the mother of TODAY co-anchor Savannah Guthrie.

While there have been no leads on a suspect, the Pima County Sheriff's Office was seen towing a car from Nancy Guthrie's residence Friday night.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Office said Friday it is investigating the legitimacy of a new message related to the disappearance of Guthrie.
Authorities did not disclose the contents of the latest message. Media outlets, including KGUN, previously received a ransom note demanding several million dollars in Bitcoin. The note set a payment deadline of Thursday, followed by a second deadline of Monday, and threatened to kill Nancy Guthrie if the money was not received.
The FBI is offering a $50,000 dollar reward for any information leading to an arrest and conviction.
