VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters) - Another severed human foot has been discovered washed ashore on Canada's Pacific coast, but police are no closer to solving the gruesome mystery on where they are coming from.
The shoe-clad foot was discovered on Thursday on a small uninhabited island south of Vancouver in the Strait of Georgia, and is the fourth discovered in the region in the past 10 months.
All four cases involved right feet, and each was found on a different island. The earlier feet were also still in shoes.
The discoveries have sparked wide speculation over where the feet came from and who they belonged to, but the Royal Canadian Mounted Police warned people on Friday "not to get caught up in unsubstantiated theories."
None of the severed feet appears to have been forcibly removed, and because the shoes would have protected the feet as they floated in the water, forensic experts say they could even have floated into the strait from a long distance away.
DNA testing has failed to link the earlier discoveries to any missing person cases in British Columbia.

TRAVIS COUNTY
Shoe found with human remains matches one found last year
Travis County investigators sending DNA to University of North Texas for analysis.
Wednesday, May 28, 2008
A shoe found with human remains Saturday morning near the shoreline of Lake Travis matches a shoe found about a mile away, close to Windy Point Park, in November, Travis County sheriff's office spokesman Roger Wade said Tuesday.
About 10 a.m. Saturday, a boater called 911 after the tennis shoe was discovered on land a few feet from the lake, in an area between Hippie Hollow and the Oasis restaurant that is accessible only by boat, Wade said.
Detectives with the sheriff's office went to the scene to collect the remains, Wade said, and they searched the area for other evidence but did not find any.
Wade said he could not say what type of remains was found inside the shoe.
Remains also were found in the shoe discovered earlier, he said.
Wade said investigators think that the DNA is from the same person.
The remains were sent to the University of North Texas for analysis, Wade said, adding that detectives would not speculate on who the person was until they receive results.

What?? There's an easier way than the way I...I mean my friend...I mean some guy I don't know has been doing it? Every way I can think of requires one to be a bit forcible. |

| Now now... sometimes feet just fall off. They probably grew new ones. |
