The skelatal remains of 20-year-old Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington, who went missing in October after attending a Metallica concert at in Charlottesville, VA, were found Tuesday (1/26) morning in a farm field about 10 miles from the concert venue, state police announced.

Police said the woman's remains were found by a farmer while he was inspecting fences on the remote, 700-acre property in the Blue Ridge Mountains foothills. Police confirmed the woman's identity today.

According to reports in October, Harrington (pictured) left John Paul Jones Arena during a Metallica concert and later called her friends inside the venue to tell them she could not get back in. The arena, like many concert venues, doesn't allow re-entry during shows. Lt. Joe Rader of the Virginia State Police told the Charlottesville Daily Progress newspaper at the time that Harrington phoned her friends from outside the venue, telling them not to worry and she would try to find a way to get home.

She wasn't heard from again, and police now are treating the case as a likely homicide.
