Severed Feet Stump Cops in Canada

Fourth sneakered foot in 10 months washes up on shore

Share

(Newser) – A fourth foot in a sneaker has washed up on a Canadian shore, leaving investigators more puzzled than ever. Each of the three previous right feet have been in sneakers and have washed up on different islands near Vancouver over the last 10 months, reports the Globe and Mail. The feet don't appear to have been "forcibly removed," said an investigator. "They may be connected. We're exploring every scenario."

All the four feet that have washed up on Canada's Pacific shore are wearing sneakers.
