Ottawa police say they are investigating after what appears to be a human foot was found in a package sent to the Conservative Party of Canada's headquarters in downtown Ottawa.  Police were called to the 12th floor of 130 Albert St. at 11:20 a.m. ET after a suspicious package was delivered to the building.

Police called for the hazardous materials unit after they noticed what appeared to be blood on the package.  The Hazmat Unit and Emergency Operations Section inspected the package and determined that there was possibly a human foot in the box, police said.  Ottawa police Staff Sgt. Bruce Pirt said major crimes investigators have taken over the HAZMAT call because if it is a human foot, "There's a body without one."...

Ottawa police say they have found a second body part in a package as they investigate the delivery of a human foot to the Conservative Party of Canada's headquarters in downtown Ottawa.  Police would not say what the body part was, nor where it was found, though they did say it was not found at the Conservative Party offices on 130 Albert St. where the foot was sent.

Media reports said the second package, containing a human hand, was not addressed to the Tory headquarters. Police said the major crime unit continues to investigate...

Listening to the news this morning and it is thought that this may be related:

Torso found in Montreal garbage pile

The major crimes unit of the Montreal police is investigating the discovery of a torso in a pile of garbage in the Côte-des-Neiges borough, west of Décarie Boulevard.

Police said a suitcase holding the human remains was found behind an apartment building at the corner of Place Lucy and the Décarie.

The building's janitor made the grisly discovery Tuesday morning at about 10:15 a.m.

Twitter is reporting that they are most likely related and they have also intercepted a package with a hand in it!!

It seems this story is coming together in bits and pieces...

 

[Remius]

Latest is that both the hand and foot originated from the same place but that the Montreal Torso is not related to these body parts.

 

[GAP]

Hmmm....Jet lost parts......maybe more than we originally thought..... ;D

 

[Bzzliteyr]

On twitter right now: Montreal police may have suspect in human torso discovery.

"the suspect and victim knew each other" says police Cmdr. "it isn't linked to organized crime"

yep so they are.

phew!

 

[jollyjacktar]

phew!

Literally.  The reports say they are decomposed and rather stinky.  Talk about foot odor.

 

[Bzzliteyr]

As are most politicians...

I feel badly for the staffer who opened the package.  That's a sensory experience you never forget.

Apparently - and perhaps not surprisingly, at this point - the police are saying that there may be other packages, in other locations.  How distressing for the victim's family.  This one promises to get weirder before it's all over.

How distressing for the victim's family. 

Indeed.  I suppose it is possible that someone has parceled up bits of themself in order to send some sort of weird message.  However, in the midst of all this black humour, let's try to keep in mind that it is more likely that there is a as-of-yet unidentified, now deceased victim of this deranged crime.

Suspect has been named.  This developping fast...

CBC is reporting that the hand that was discovered in the postal station was addressed to the Liberal Party headquarters.

And in the really bizaree spin department, a NDP MP speculated that the foot was mailed to the CPC HQ by someone who was disgusted by what the Conservatives are doing to the country. This would appear to rule out the need to mail a rectal orfice to the headquarters of the New Democratic Party.

How about this for weird.  Not sure if it is the same guy...

If true, it would be an abhorrent lapse of judgement, and I'd imagine Mr. Mulcair or the party whip would get on that pretty quickly. 

As for the suspect, the more I read, the more disturbed and nauseated I feel.  Alleged animal cruelty also... jeepers.

It's the same photo the CBC is using.  Which leads to a plethora of other questions...
