A coroner has matched a pair of dismembered female feet that mysteriously washed up on the shores of British Columbia.
The British Columbia coroner said on Friday it had matched a female right foot discovered on Canada's West coast in November with a left foot discovered in May. Both were encased in New Balance running shoes.
...All six feet were found in athletic shoes.
'In all cases, these remains appear to have naturally separated from the body,' said the B.C. Coroners Service.
DNA testing linked one of the Canadian feet to a depressed man who disappeared in 2007.
Investigators have also concluded that two of the five feet belonged to one man who has not yet been identified.

No new feet, but at least the coroner has been able to make some headway in this mystery.
