North Las Vegas woman reported missing on New Year’s Eve found alive

A North Las Vegas woman reported missing on New Year’s Eve has been found alive, police said.

No details on where Jennifer Sims, 46, was found or her condition were released, but North Las Vegas police spokesman Eric Leavitt confirmed that Sims was recently removed from a law enforcement database as a missing person.

A family friend sent an email to the Review-Journal earlier this week saying she’s been found and is “being cared for.”

An initial press release from authorities on Dec. 31 incorrectly spelled Sims’ last name with two “m”s.
