A mystery afoot: Why do human feet keep washing ashore in B.C.?


MONTREAL—The mystery has haunted Canadians for more than a decade: One by one, human feet clad in running shoes have floated ashore on British Columbia’s southern coast with gruesome regularity. The 13 feet found previously along the coast since 2007 were in running shoes — Adidas, Reebok and other brands. Andy Watson, a spokesperson for the Coroners Service, said this past week that foul play had been ruled out in all the previous cases. Nine of the feet have been identified, two of them from the same person, according to the Coroners Service. The phenomenon has spurred several hoaxes in which pranksters have stuffed animals’ feet into shoes to fool officials.
