Nicole Estella Rowland, 37, was classified as a "high-risk" missing person in a public notice issued March 2, 2026 by the Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victims Unit after she was last seen Feb. 16 at approximately 1:15 p.m. leaving her home on West Main Street in Millville. Investigators say Rowland "may be in need of medical attention or prescription medication," prompting the office to ask the public for help locating her.

The prosecutor’s notice and subsequent alerts describe Rowland as about 5 feet, 6 inches tall and approximately 180 pounds, with a tattoo on her right forearm variously reported as a rose and stars or roses and stars. Multiple releases specify she left from the 100 block of West Main Street and was last seen at about 1:15 p.m. on the afternoon of Monday, Feb. 16, with the public notice dated March 2, 2026.

The Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office identified Detective Lauren Gray as the public contact for tips and leads and provided a tip line at 856-506-7096. The prosecutor’s office also accepts anonymous submissions through CCPO.TIPS online, and investigators reiterated that Rowland is being treated as high-risk because of potential medical or prescription needs.

To date, the prosecutor’s office has not released details about clothing Rowland was wearing when she left her home, whether a vehicle was involved or missing, or whether any surveillance footage or witness accounts exist. Prosecutors have not named any suspects, persons of interest, or made any arrests in connection with Rowland’s disappearance, and no cause for her disappearance has been announced.

Local investigators and the Special Victims Unit have not provided additional medical specifics, such as the nature of any condition or the medication Rowland may require. The public notice does not indicate whether Millville Police Department filed the original missing person report or whether state police are assisting; the prosecutor’s office remains the public point of contact in this inquiry.

Anyone with information about Nicole Estella "Nikki" Rowland, including anyone in Millville or elsewhere in Cumberland County who saw someone matching her description on Feb. 16, is asked to contact Det. Lauren Gray at 856-506-7096 or submit an anonymous tip via CCPO.TIPS. The prosecutor’s office classified Rowland as high-risk on March 2, 2026 and investigators say they will continue to update the public as credible leads develop.
