RANDOLPH, Minn. — A $45,000 reward is being offered to anyone with valuable information into the disappearance of 56-year-old Nicole "Nikki" Anderson, who has been missing since early July.

The Dakota County Sheriff's Office said private parties came together to offer an additional $40,000 to be added to the original $5,000 reward that was offered earlier this year. The reward will be given to anyone who provides information that leads to the whereabouts of Anderson or the prosecution of anyone involved in her disappearance. Only tips received through the sheriff's office or CrimeStoppers will be eligible for the reward. Tips can be submitted by phone at 651-438-TIPS (8477), via email at crimeandwarranttips@co.dakota.mn.us or online at the link Report A Tip.

According to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), Anderson left her home in Randolph Township around 10 a.m. on July 6, and hasn't been heard from since. Officials say Anderson left on foot without her phone, wallet, glasses or medication, adding there is “concern for her welfare.”

Anderson’s mother, Dorene Mies, told KARE 11's Kiya Edwards that her daughter left the house that morning to get the mail and never returned. The moment was captured on their Ring camera.
