When the third human foot was found washed up, officials thought perhaps from a boating or air crash accident, when the fourth foot washed up months later Police were Mum on connecting it to possible Gang Activity or Serial Killer on the loose as a warning. Now a fifth foot has washed up leaving many to believe where are the bodies, why only a foot? Is this a sign of sinister things to come?

B.C. police find fifth human footSevered body part found washed up on Metro Vancouver's Westham IslandCatherine Rolfsen and Doug Ward, Canwest News ServicePublished: Monday, June 16, 2008METRO VANCOUVER - A human left foot was found Monday on Westham Island in Ladner - the fifth disarticulated foot discovered since August on B.C.'s south coast.
Delta Police and the B.C. Coroners Service are trying to establish the identity of the remains and determine whether they can be linked to the recovery of four other feet. The last one found before this was located just upriver last month.
"At this point we really don't know what we're dealing with," said Const. Sharlene Brooks Monday evening. "Without the forensic side of it established, it's too early to say there are linkages."

Thanks Rob for the flag, certainly whether a serial killer, though in my relatively lack of any experience in these matters most likely a Gang killing as a warning.

It’s either gang related or there’s a serial killer out there with a severe foot fetish!
