A Serial Killer In Canada

A severed foot -- the sixth this year -- washed up on the shore of a Canadian island on Wednesday.The right foot was found by a local woman walking on the beach, said Sgt. Mike Tresoor of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in the town of Campbell River on Vancouver Island, British Colombia.The foot was the sixth discovered on shorelines in the area since August, according to local police and media reports. Another foot -- a severed left foot still clad in a shoe -- was found Monday on the shore of Westham Island, south of Vancouver. Police said it was taken to a coroner for DNA testing. The Vancouver Sun newspaper said the first four feet found in the area were all right feet, making the foot found Monday the only left foot. Although the gruesome finds have drawn international attention, police said it may take some time to unravel the mystery.The mystery has caused a stir and given birth to many rumors, locals say. One newspaper has began investigating a rash of young men who have gone missing in the area.
Some have wondered if the feet could belong to a group of men who were in a plane that recently crashed in the waterway where the feet were found
