Nick Cummings, West Seattle resident, has been missing for 14 years. His family and police are hoping that the greater community has clues as to his whereabouts.

Nick went missing on May 14, 2002.

His sister, Emily Cummings, described Nick as someone who had a great sense of humor, made everyone laugh and “lived life to the fullest” according to previous Q13 coverage.

Nick was the youngest of three Cummings children.

Nick was reported missing after telling his girlfriend, Jana Freda, that’d he’d be back in 15 minutes, according to Q13.

“He left and never returned,” said Seattle Police Det. Michael Ciesynski.

Det. Ciesynski took over the investigation three years ago.

Police recovered Nick's vehicle, but there wasn’t much evidence for police to use. His cell phone and pager didn’t come up with many leads or answers.

“There was nothing to indicate there was any foul play in the vehicle,” Ciesynski said. "I believe it was probably a good meeting place to meet someone for a transaction or 'just a meeting.’ One that may have turned deadly.”

Nick was a known marijuana dealer. Police reported that he was "more of a pound dealer, large scale, nothing very small.”

Ciesynski wants to talk to anyone who may have any knowledge about Nick’s disappearance.

“People who supplied Nick with marijuana and also some of his customers hopefully that would lead me somewhere else down the line here and I can solve this case,” Ciesynski told Q13.

His family wants answers, as well.
