CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) - Police are hoping a $100,000 reward will help generate new leads in the search for a Virginia Tech student who disappeared outside a Metallica concert.
Virginia State Police announced Monday that Jefferson Area Crime Stoppers is offering the reward for information leading to the return of 20-year-old Morgan Dana Harrington of Roanoke.
Harrington was last seen Oct. 17 outside a University of Virginia arena in Charlottesville.
The amount of the reward could grow. State police spokeswoman Corinne Geller says details of a donation from Metallica are still being worked out.
The Web site findmorgan.com says the band plans to contribute $50,000.
Police say they're continuing to pursue tips about Harrington, who became separated from her friends when she left the arena.
