Police are searching a home in Arizona and have detained a person for questioning over the disappearance of US TV host Savannah Guthrie's mother Nancy Guthrie.

The Pima County Sheriff's Department said deputies detained an individual during a traffic stop south of Tucson in Arizona and he is being spoken to regarding the missing 84-year-old.

The person was detained near the US-Mexico border in Rio Rico.

A search warrant is currently being executed at a home in the same area.

Rio Rico is located around 20 kilometres north of the US-Mexico border.

No charges have been laid.

The County Sheriff's Department said it would release more information as it became available.

It remains unclear if the person in custody is the same person pictured in doorbell footage released earlier today.

FBI director Kash Patel earlier told media that investigators were looking at multiple individuals as a "person of interest" in the case.

He said the FBI's investigation has found there "might be person of interest in and around the area related to this event".

Nancy, who has been missing for 10 days, was last seen at her home in Tucson on January 31.

Her daughter, journalist and long-term co-anchor of the Today US television news program Savannah Guthrie, has issued repeated pleas for information and even appealed to the unknown kidnappers, offering to pay a ransom.

The arrest comes after chilling CCTV footage of a man on the doorstep of her own was released by the FBI.

Patel posted the images online early today, saying they had been recovered "from residual data located in backend systems".

The Gisborne District Council plans emergency works on the stream before forecast rain.

An emergency alert has been issued, urging people to stay inside and close their windows.

Authorities have warned something "terrible" could have happened if police did not quickly swoop on a WA man who has been jailed over an evil plan to kidnap and abuse a young girl inside his own home.

Jason Williams Forbes has been jailed for seven years and five months for plotting to pose as a policeman in order to abduct a girl in 2024.

The predator's plan, described as an elaborate mind map, was etched onto a mirror in the master bedroom of his Baldivis home, about 40 kilometres south of Perth.

The 39-year-old built a "panic room" in the attic to hide the child, buying timber for the construction from Bunnings.

Authorities were tipped off after intercepting a child sex doll, which represented a female aged between 11 and 12, in the middle of 2024.

Detective Acting Superintendent Eamon Flanagan said police needed to respond swiftly before Forbes could move forward with his plans.

"Police intervention with the Australian Border Force (ABF) stopped a very dangerous situation from occurring," Flanagan told media today.

"It was clear there was serious and imminent risk if there had been any delay in this investigation."

Flanagan warned that a child could have been harmed without rapid police intervention.

He said, while a case like this is rare in WA, it was important that members of the community report suspicious activity to authorities.

"Without decisive action, something terrible could have happened in this case," he added.

"Every report that we receive is dealt with promptly and taken seriously.

"We're lucky we do live in a very safe state in WA where these types of incidents are rare."

Families living on the same street as Forbes did not know the nature of his offending until police revealed the information yesterday.

Flanagan said police would have taken adequate action if any nearby children were at risk.

The Baldivis property was sold to a new owner, who said they weren't told of the former resident's plans before they bought it.

The extent of Forbes' planning was revealed in court.

The judge told the court officers found nappies and children's underwear and nearly 80,000 files of child exploitation material, many stored in a folder labelled "X marks the spot".

Forbes' internet searches included "volunteer childcare work near me", "how to build a panic room in the loft", "knockout chemicals and gases" and "how old can a child be left at home alone".

He also took photos of children using the cameras on his Tesla, which had windows fitted with pieces of dark-tinted perspex sheets and mapping history of various childcare centres across Perth.

Forbes had tried to explain how his depraved internet searches were "research" for a novel he was writing, adding that he owned a fake police badge as he liked to dress up.

The judge rejected all of this, saying he believed the electrician planned to follow through with the kidnap plot and sexual assault of a child.

He pleaded guilty to multiple offences, including attempting to possess child-like sex dolls, using a carriage service to prepare or plan to engage in sexual activity with a child under 16, and possessing child exploitation material.

The electrician was jailed for seven years and five months, due for parole in just under four years.

Detective Acting Superintendent David Palmer earlier said police were able to disrupt the offender's actions before any child was physically harmed.

"Detectives from Child Exploitation Operations are putting offenders on notice. If you harm children, or if you are involved in child exploitation in any form, you will be found, you will be charged, you will face significant time in prison, and we will seize your assets," he said.

"This investigation is a clear example of early intervention preventing harm to children."

Australian Border Force Commander Ranjeev Maharaj said the initial detection by the ABF of a child-like sex doll smuggled into Australia ended up uncovering a concerning number of additional crimes.

A shark has been spotted trapped inside the netted zone of an ocean pool on Sydney's northern beaches.

The small shark was spotted inside the netted ocean pool at Manly Cove, near the wharf.

EPSTEIN FILES: Trump named in the unredacted files 'more than a million times'

It is believed to be a Dusky Whaler, a species of shark that can grow up to 3.5 metres in length.

Dusky Whalers are not documented to be of serious threat, with few attacks attributable to the species.

Northern Beaches Council have said there are no holes in the net and high tide may have contributed to the shark entering the pool.

The beach has not been shut following the sighting.

Two members of Congress have named six men whose names were redacted by the Department of Justice from the Epstein files.

Democrat Ro Khanna and Republican Thomas Massie used their parliamentary privilege to name the men on the floor of the House of Representatives.

"Seventy to eighty per cent of the files are still redacted," Khanna said.

"There were six wealthy powerful men that the DOJ hid for no apparent reason."

The list includes two billionaires.

Nobody on the list is accused of taking part in any specific criminal wrongdoing or implicated in any crimes. And none of them have been charged in connection with Jeffrey Epstein.

The legislation passed late last year required the Department of Justice to release all the files connected to their investigation of Epstein.

The department was permitted to redact the names of victims.

But the millions of documents released have also redacted the names of countless other people – including some seemingly connected to serious crimes.

Massie and Khanna were able to go to the department yesterday to read unredacted files from the investigation for two hours.

"If we found six men they were hiding in two hours, imagine how many men there are covering up for in those three million files?" Khanna said.

"Donald Trump's FBI scrubbed these files in March, long before Thomas Massie and I passed the Epstein Transparency Act."

Another congressman granted access to the Epstein files, Jamie Raskin, alleged that Trump's name appeared in them "more than a million times". Nine is not implying that appearing in the files is an indication of any criminal offence.

Raskin said he had read an email between Epstein and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, which denied a central claim made by Trump.

Trump has repeatedly stated Epstein was asked to leave Mar-a-Lago.

But the 2009 email exchange included Epstein denying the assertion.

The president said he threw Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago because he was poaching spa workers.

Trump said Epstein "stole" victim Virginia Giuffre from the spa.

At the time, Giuffre was a teenage masseuse working for Trump.

Meanwhile, the Department of Justice is answering questions about why a statement about Jeffrey Epstein's death was dated the day before his apparent suicide.

The press release was dated August 9, 2019, when Epstein died on August 10.

It was subsequently released in the Epstein files release.

The department told the BBC the date was merely a typo.

The federal government is taking a second crack at reforming superannuation in a move that would give more than a million low earners a retirement boost while hitting the nation's wealthiest with a higher tax rate.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers this morning introduced the Better Targeted Superannuation Concessions bill to parliament.

If passed, the new laws would change how superannuation is taxed for two groups of Australians at opposite ends of the wealth spectrum: about 90,000 people with the highest super balances, and roughly 1.3 million of the nation's lowest-paid workers.

EPSTEIN FILES: Trump's bombshell claims about Epstein in mid-2000s revealed

For the latter, the government is hoping to expand the threshold for the low-income superannuation tax offset (LISTO).

In its current form, the LISTO offsets the tax paid on superannuation for anyone earning less than $37,000 a year, effectively ensuring super is still tax-effective for Australians on low incomes.

Under the proposed new law, the threshold for the offset will be raised to the top of the second income tax bracket – which currently sits at $45,000 – covering an additional 1.3 million workers.

According to the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA), that change will deliver someone on $44,000 a year close to an extra $50,000 in their super balance by the time they retire.

"Our reforms to the low-income superannuation tax offset will help deliver a more secure retirement for more than a million Australians, mainly young people and women," Chalmers said.

"These changes will help make the super system fairer from top to bottom."

Alongside the higher LISTO offset, the bill also increases the tax rate on superannuation earnings for accounts with more than $3 million.

This will impact the top 0.3 per cent of super account holders – a total of about 90,000 people.

Instead of the current flat concessional tax rate of 15 per cent, the bill proposes raising the tax rate on earnings for super accounts with a balance of between $3 million and $10 million to 30 per cent, and to 40 per cent for accounts worth more than $10 million.

The increased tax rates won't apply to an account's entire earnings – only to the proportion of the balance over each of the new thresholds.

Combined, the changes will generate about $1.6 billion in extra tax revenue for the federal budget per year.

The introduction of today's bill comes after an aborted attempt to pass similar legislation during the last parliament and following May's federal election, when the government faced significant criticism, particularly on the proposal to tax unrealised gains and a refusal to index the thresholds for the higher tax rates.

Both of those elements of the laws have since been scrapped – the current bill only includes a higher tax for realised earnings, and the $3 million and $10 million thresholds will be indexed.

Despite the changes, the passage of the current bill is uncertain. The Coalition opposes the changes, meaning the government will require support from the Greens to get the laws through the Senate.

MORE TAX CHANGES: $23 billion break could be overhauled in matter of months

According to the Australian Financial Review, the minor party could demand more stringent measures targeting wealthy accounts in exchange for its backing.

However, ASFA has encouraged the Greens and opposition to back the legislation.

"Together, these changes make super tax settings fairer and more sustainable," chief executive Mary Delahunty said. 

"I encourage the parliament to pass the legislation without delay. 

"Aussie workers on low incomes cannot wait another day for the fairness that this package delivers to them."

If passed, the higher tax rates on wealthy accounts will come into effect on July 1, while the LISTO boost will follow a year later.
