Man finds ‘chewed off’ foot
A Table View man has found a foot at the Milnerton lagoon.
Derick van Vuuren said he had found it while out walking.
“It was just floating around in the water,” he said after making the find on Sunday.
“The cops reckon it’s a shark attack victim. But there have been no attacks on the West Coast. The last attack I remember is the one in Simon’s Town. Perhaps it was the foot that went missing from the Salt River mortuary some time ago. But that one was sawn off, apparently. This one looked like it was chewed off.”
Police spokesperson Billy Jones said the foot had been severed above the ankle. An inquest docket had been opened.
