Description: A mystery washing up on the shores of british columbia in canada. . . A running shoe with a human foot inside. The discovery was made on a beach near richmond, just south of vancouver. Sot: it appears the foot itself has been protected from the elements by the makeup of the shoe and it's just come apart naturally from the lower leg over time after being in the water. Authorities say it is the *seventh* foot to wash up on the coast in the past two years. Another foot was found on the u-s side in washington state. . . Bringing the total to eight. Sot: quite a unique circumstance, not only in north america but around the world. We are treating them as individual investigations, individual death investigations. However the similarities can't be overlooked. The royal canadian mounted police have put photos of the running shoe online. . . Hoping someone will recognize it. ___ ___, the associated press.
