Metallica Donates $50,000 to the Reward for a Missing Fan

A Metallica fan, Morgan Harrington, went missing during the concert on October 17, 2009 held at John Paul Jones Arena on the University of Virginia campus in Charlottesville.

Apparently between 8:30 and 9:00 pm she had gone outside without her ticket so she was not allowed back in the venue. She called her friends inside the concert and told them she would find a ride home. Her cell phone and purse were found the next day in a parking lot near the arena. She did not arrive home. Her parents, Dan and Gil Harrington, reported her missing the next day.

Morgan is 5 feet 6 inches tall weighing 120 pounds with blond hair and blue eyes. Police are asking anyone with information to call 434-352-3467.

With the $50,000 from Metallica, the reward for information that helps find Morgan Harrington is up to $150,000.
