NSW Police have issued a public appeal for assistance in locating a 15-year-old girl who has been reported missing from the Maitland area in northern New South Wales.

According to an official statement released by the NSW Police Force, Jada Hill was last seen at approximately 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, 30 July 2025, in the Maitland area. When she could not be contacted or located, her family reported her missing to authorities. Officers from the Port Stephens-Hunter Police District are currently conducting investigations into her whereabouts.

Police and family members have expressed concern for Jada’s safety due to her young age and the circumstances surrounding her disappearance. No further details about those circumstances have been released at this time, but law enforcement authorities are treating the case with urgency and are actively pursuing all available leads.

Jada is described by police as being of Caucasian appearance, with a slim build and standing approximately 165 centimeters tall. She has long pink hair and was last seen wearing black track pants with white pinstripes, a navy jumper with white drawstrings, and pink and white Nike TN shoes.

As part of their investigation, officers believe that Jada may be frequenting locations connected to the public rail network or may possibly be in the Waterloo area. This information is based on leads currently being explored by police, although it is not confirmed that she has been seen in those areas.

Authorities are urging members of the public who may have information regarding Jada’s whereabouts or recent movements to contact Maitland Police directly. Alternatively, information can be provided anonymously by calling Crime Stoppers at 1800 333 000. NSW Police emphasize that all tips, no matter how minor they may seem, could assist in locating Jada and ensuring her safe return.

The police continue to investigate and are following all credible lines of inquiry. Updates on the case will be provided through official NSW Police media channels as new information becomes available.

Members of the public are encouraged to follow NSW Police announcements for developments and are reminded to report any sightings promptly to their local police station or to Crime Stoppers.

This remains an active missing persons case, and the cooperation of the community is vital to supporting efforts to find Jada Hill and bring her safely home.
