A Halloween Ghost Story

I always love hearing Halloween Ghost stories. And they are especially chilling when they are true. This happened here in little Cedar City on the street I live on! Prepare to be spooked.
A friend of mine works at 911 dispatch here and was telling me this story. Yesterday at about five pm, a man here in town who lives a ways up the road from me called 911 because his dog had brought home a shoe...with a FOOT in it. Now, apparently, dispatch gets this type of call relatively often where people call saying they have found a bone or some type of remains of a body and it always turns out to be of animal origin. However, after seeing the shoe and the remnants inside the shoe, the crime lab confirmed this to be a human foot. Which means that unless someone out there is missing a foot,(Which, apparently there are no reports of anyone missing one around here.) there is a body somewhere. It makes this story even more frightening that the foot was very decomposed meaning that it had been out in the elements for a WHILE.
So, the local search and rescue was called out to use cadaver dogs to locate the body, which they were able to find last night without much difficulty. (I think they are hiring, would anyone like a shot at THAT job?) They were able to identify the body, and the person had been missing for over a year. However the person is not from this area and it is unclear whether any "foul play" occurred.
So basically that's all I know. Ghost stories are best when they have an unresolved disturbing ending right? Can I mention again that this happened on my street? Yikes!
