Subject: BC's ninth foot?

Ninth foot washes up on Canada shore - With a twist

Unlike previous eight cases, this one was found in freshwater!

The remains of a foot were found encased in a sock in a hiking boot that washed up in Sasamat Lake in Port Moody over the weekend. An autopsy on Monday confirmed the remains are human.

The foot is the ninth found in southwestern B.C. in the past four years. But unlike the previous eight cases, this one was found in freshwater, not saltwater, said coroner Steve Fonseca, manager of the Identification and Disaster Response Unit for the BC Coroners Service.

It is also the first to be found in a hiking boot, rather than in a running shoe.

What's up, Aurra.... still happening?

It's usually been from suicides...running shoes will float, unlike the shoes from previous eras. Don't know much about this case yet but it's usually turning out to be either suicides or in a couple of cases, accidental drowning. Lightweight hikers may end up be the reason behind this foot showing up.
