Nanaimo RCMP looking for woman who went missing amid ‘significant personal issues’

Police are asking the public for help locating missing 30-year-old Samantha Evans, who has not been heard from since Jan. 11, 2023.

Her family contacted the Nanaimo RCMP on January 18, 2023, and a missing person's investigation was initiated.

Evans is currently of no fixed address and has recently been dealing with “some significant personal issues.”

As a result, her family and support network are concerned for her safety and well-being.

Evans is a Caucasian woman, 5 ft. 7, 170 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. The picture provided is relatively recent.

She may also be sporting a piercing, located just below her lower lip. She is associated with a red 2004 Monte Carlo. The vehicle, however, is parked in south Nanaimo and with no plates attached.

If anyone has information on the whereabouts of Samantha Evans, please call the Nanaimo RCMP non-emergency line at 250-754-2345, and quote file # 2023-1931.
