Canadian officials are investigating after a human foot washed up on the shores of British Columbia – marking the 13th time in the past decade that tides have carried a sneaker-clad foot on to its coastline. The ankle bone still worked and the bones were attached at the base of the knee,” Johns told CTV News. Since 2007, another dozen feet have washed up in British Columbia, each of them clad in running shoes. “We’ve had people put dog foot skeletons in runners and leave them on the beach,” Barb McLintock of the BC coroner’s office told the Guardian the last time a foot washed up in February 2016. The investigation is in its early stages and could eventually be broadened, said Andy Watson of the BC coroner’s office.
