After new video surfaced, according to sources, investigators returned to the river and canal two weeks after a college student vanished from a nearby bar while out with friends the night before Thanksgiving.
Shane Montgomery was last seen in the early hours of Thanksgiving when he left Kildare's Irish Pub along Main Street in Manayunk.
Shane's mother Karen Montgomery said investigators had "narrowed down their search" Wednesday.
That narrowed search was due to recently surfaced video that sources close to the investigation said shows Shane walking toward the canal after leaving the bar.
The FBI wouldn't confirm the new video but FBI spokesman J.J. Klaver said that information developed Wednesday shows Shane walking between the Manayunk Canal and the Schuylkill River soon after he left a nearby bar
Crews searched the nearby canal, Schuylkill River and river bank to look for clues in the disappearance of the 21-year-old West Chester University student and Roxborough native.
A boat could be seen on the Schuylkill River and Philadelphia Police's crime scene unit could also be seen searching the banks of the river.
