Nicole Evers-Everette, the granddaughter of civil rights icons Medgar and Myrlie Evers, has been found safe after being reported missing.
Family spokesman Chris Fleming issued the update Friday morning after reporting that Nicole, or “Niki” as she is called by family and friends, was last seen at her Duluth, Ga. apartment on Sunday and last spoke with her mother at 5:55 p.m. that evening.
“I am just so thankful that my Niki has been found safe. Thank you to God, law enforcement, and all those who assisted in helping us locate Niki. I am eternally grateful and overwhelmed by the love and support shown during this difficult time,” Reena Evers-Everette, Nicole’s mother, said.
“I recognize that this outcome would not be possible without the incredible commitment of my family and the power of the media and social media. My deepest thanks to all who have shown up, spoken up, and stood up, to help find my daughter.”
Nikki was said to be without her cell phone, purse, and other personal items. Her car had last been seen in McDonough, Ga. on Monday night. Nonetheless, the granddaughter of one of the most consequential figures of the Civil Rights Movement is reported to be safe.
Details surrounding how Nikki was found and determined to be safe have not been provided at this time.
