Police are now searching for more clues regarding the disappearance of 18-year-old University of Virginia student Hannah Graham, who has been missing since Saturday, as a new video footage surfaced showing a man following her the day she disappeared.
The initial videos studied by the police showed that Graham was walking and running near a Shell station while another shows her talking to a man outside a pub.

The newly released footage, however, shows Graham being followed by a man in the Downtown Mall located at Charlotesville, Virginia, in the early hours last Saturday.
Graham reportedly went out at 11 P.M. on Friday after having dinner with friends. At around 1:20 in the morning on Saturday, she blasted a text message to her friends saying that she was lost. Police suspect that Graham might have been under the influence of alcohol.
As of now, police have released a description of Graham saying that she is 5'11'', blue-eyed, has light brown hair and freckles.
The young woman's parents informed police early on that they are concerned foul play may be involved as their daughter did not come home after leaving on Friday evening.
As of now, the police have been able to interview around 50 people and received over 100 tips regarding the case. The area where the police are searching has now grown.
Due to this, the Graham case is now being linked to another University of Virginia student who disappeared and was killed back in 2009.
Morgan Harrington, a Tech Student who was then 20-years-old, disappeared after she attended a Metallica concert on October 2009. Her remains were located a few months later on a farm, which was 10 miles away from the concert grounds.
The Harringtons have since then started an organization called "Help Save the Next Girl". Now, they are also helping in the search for Graham. They even tweeted a photo of a message taped on the Charlottesville bridge saying: "PLEASE FIND HANNAH."
Charlottesville Police Chief Timothy Longo responded to this on Wednesday saying that the link between the Harrington and Graham case is a legitimate concern.
