The mystery has haunted Canadians for more than a decade: One by one, human feet clad in running shoes have floated ashore on British Columbias southern coast with gruesome regularity.
Last weekend, foot No. 14 was discovered by a man strolling on a beach on Gabriola Island, a sleepy and picturesque enclave, population 4,000, that is known for its captivating sandstone and close-knit artistic community.
This time, the foot, squeezed between a pile of logs, wore what appeared to be a hiking boot, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
The 13 feet found previously along the coast since 2007 were in running shoes Adidas, Reebok and other brands. Each time, the questions arose: Why are the feet ending up in Canada? Where did they come from? And where are the other parts?

The running shoe killer! Some killer is very devious and knows the currents of BC.
“Why are the feet ending up in Canada?”

Once the third is found, they have to call in the Yard.

Most of these are due to suicides or drowning. Interesting that footware with feet in them have been washing up in the areas for over 130 years. The first one was found in 1887, and the location where it was found is called Leg-In-Boot Square.
