POLICE in the UK have issued a public appeal to find the owner of a human finger, after a seven year investigation failed to reveal to whom it belonged.
A dog found the severed digit in the rear courtyard of a London shop in 2010, with police saying the DNA did not match any missing person or crime reports from the time, and they have no other clues, Reuters reports.
They know it came from a male, but that's about it, with a spokesperson saying "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.
