The Dakota County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate the disappearance of 56-year-old Nicole Anderson who left on foot from her Randolph Township home on July 6th at approximately 10 a.m. and did not return. Family reported her missing the afternoon of Monday, July 8th. That afternoon, investigators conducted an extensive search of the home, property, and surrounding area on foot and by air, utilizing canines, drones, and helicopters. Ms. Anderson was not found.

On Wednesday, July 10th, investigators executed a search warrant in the City of Randolph at a residence of Ms. Anderson's boyfriend, 42-year-old Matthew Suttles. Suttles had an active, felony body-only arrest warrant out of Le Sueur County for a probation violation. Suttles was a person of interest, and the property was one that Ms. Anderson frequented. Suttles was not present at the time deputies executed the search warrant, however he turned himself in to deputies on scene shortly thereafter. Investigators searched the property and did not locate Ms. Anderson. Suttles was arrested on his warrant and questioned on his knowledge regarding Ms. Anderson's disappearance. He is currently held in the Dakota County jail and will be released to Le Sueur County on his warrant. Suttles is not being held on criminal charges related to Ms. Anderson's disappearance.

We continue our exhaustive efforts to locate Ms. Anderson. This remains an active investigation and no further information will be released at this time. Follow our social media for updates.
