    This was pointed out in the main Swedish House Mafia thread, but it's easier start a new thread. Thanks to Bad Panda for bringing this up. There's a picture of her in the link. Please have a look.

    Gardaí are today searching for Aoife Finan, 19, from Cobh, Co Cork, who has been missing since last Saturday.

    Aoife attended the Swedish House Mafia concert at Phoenix Park in Dublin on Saturday and has not been seen since about 11pm that night when she got seperated from her friends.

    She is described at 5'5'', medium build with brown shoulder-length hair.

    When last seen, she was wearing red leggings, purple and black wellington boots, white t-shirt and a faded denim jacket.

    Hope that's true, have you a link?

    I googled that as soon as the poster wrote it, and the most recent link is the Examiner, updated 19 minutes ago, saying she's missing (which is the link in the OP, also).

    More info:
    Aoife was last seen by her friends shortly after 11pm on Saturday night - but they didn't see or hear from the teen throughout the concert's concluding day.

    The last contact from her was a phone call from a mobile she had borrowed from a man she had met after getting separated from her friends and lost.

    A bag containing some of Aoife's possessions including her mobile phone was found in the park by an emergency services official on Sunday.

    Gardai are now trying to trace the mobile on which Aoife made her call - and are reviewing CCTV security camera footage in a bid to locate her and who she was with.

    Making a thread about this on a social networking site I moderate. It's for people who listen to heavy metal music and has a primarily American userbase, but there are some Irish sections, so I'll get a thread stickied on the site there.

    My thoughts are with your family.
