Missing something? UK police want help to solve severed finger mystery

 

LONDON (Reuters) - British police have launched a public appeal to find the owner of a human finger, seven years after it was found in London.

 

Police said on Thursday that the DNA of the severed finger, which came from a male, did not match any missing person or crime reports of the time and they have no other clues.

 

It was found by a dog in the rear courtyard of a London shop in 2010.

 

"We have now exhausted all lines of inquiry and have been unable to find out who the finger belongs to and how the finger became detached in the first place. It is quite the mystery," said Detective Constable Tom Boon.

 

"We are now appealing for the public to help us solve the case."

Is he of Thai ancestry?

Doubtful. If he was he would be all over the media on day 1 saying "we have a suspect we know who you are please make your way to the nearest police station so we can arrest you by the way we know you're a foreigner"

It probably fell out of a Morticians vehicle and was from a dead accident victim, they just toss your parts in a pail and put it in their van or truck. I would think they could find more important things to investigate.
