Detectives Need Help Finding West Columbia Woman

The Lexington County Sheriff’s Department needs your help in finding a 38-year-old woman who was reported missing on Tuesday.

Detectives are looking for Amy Nicole Hill, 38, of West Columbia.

Hill was last seen on March 16 at the home of her estranged boyfriend, James Jason Kirkland, at 521 Old Wire Road near West Columbia, according to the sheriff’s department.

Hill is 5 feet 6 inches and weighs 125 pounds. She has red hair and green eyes, and has a porpoise tattoo on her left thigh.

Hill was last seen wearing a green T-shirt inscribed with “Everybody Loves Irish People,” blue jeans and athletic shoes.

Police say Hill has medical conditions that require her to take prescription medications, which she does not have with her.

Hill’s father, Larry Dean Roberts, reported her missing and relatives say it is out of character for Hill to remain out of contact with them for a prolonged period of time, according to the sheriff’s department.

Lexington County Sheriff James Meets said Kirkland told deputies that Hill was at his residence when he left for work on March 16.

Later that day, Kirkland told deputies that Hill was not at his residence when he returned home after running errands, and that Hill’s purse and backpack were missing.

Hill’s information has been entered as a missing person on the National Crime Information Center computer database. 

Metts asked anyone with information concerning Hill or her whereabouts to call the Lexington County Sheriff’s Department at 803-785-8230 or CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
