Author: Virginia State Police searched a two-mile stretch of Interstate 64 in Albemarle County this morning for evidence in the disappearance of Virginia Tech student Morgan Dana Harrington.
About a dozen troopers spent a couple of hours searching along a median between mile markers 112 and 114, said state police spokeswoman Corinne Geller. The troopers were not acting on a specific tip, and their search turned up nothing useful to the case.
Harrington disappeared Oct. 17 after she was separated from friends while attending a Metallica concert at the University of Virginia’s John Paul Jones Arena. Someone matching Harrington’s description was spotted hitchhiking that evening along a bridge near the arena.
The stretch of I-64 searched by troopers today is just west of Charlottesville.
“We wanted to go back and recanvass that area,” Geller said.
Authorities have received about 600 leads in the case.
