Virginia state police spent much of Oct. 27 looking over YouTube videos shot during Metallica's Oct. 17 concert in Charlottesville, Va., in hopes that the footage will provide some additional clues into the mysterious disappearance of 20-year-old Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington. Police learned of the videos after receiving telephone tips from anonymous sources, and the criminal investigation into the missing student, last seen wearing a Pantera shirt and a black mini-skirt, continues at full-speed.

Cops are also looking at Facebook pictures taken during the concert, to see what leads they can glean from the images.

On Monday, Harrington's father, Dan, told reporters the girl in the video looks like it could be his daughter. "It's fairly far away, and [there are] lots of moving images. The one thing that doesn't go with it is the fact that Morgan left [home] with tights on. I just can't remember the timelines of where things are as to when [Metallica] took the stage and whether Morgan was still in the building or out of the building, or could she have gotten back in the building? I don't know."

In the video, a blond woman, matching Harrington's description, is approached by three men, who aggressively lead her away in the lower part of the screen.

There is a $150,000 reward for information leading to the safe return or information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Harrington's disappearance.

Police also found clothing while searching near the University of Virginia's campus on Oct. 26. They do not believe the clothes have anything to do with the case. Meanwhile, Harrington's parents appeared on Tuesday's 'Today Show' on NBC, and her mother, Gil, says the couple has directed their energy into finding Morgan. While she's "very worried" about the possibility her daughter was kidnapped, Morgan's father added that the family continues to holding out hope that Morgan "will come back to us," and called the situation a "parents' worst nightmare."

Metallica have issued a statement regarding Harrington's disappearance, encouraging "anyone who has any information regarding Morgan's disappearance to please come forward. Our thoughts are with Morgan and her family for her safe return."
