STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Swedish police say a human foot that washed up on a beach near a tourist resort belonged to a 59-year-old man who went missing on the southwest coast last year.

Police spokesman Thomas Karlsson says authorities don't suspect foul play and the foot separated from the body through natural decomposition.

The foot was still inside a sock and shoe, and was reminiscent of similar discoveries in Canada.

Karlsson said the man went missing near a river in Halmstad in November and probably fell in.

The foot, which was found in Tylosand near Halmstad on July 8, was identified through DNA testing. It is thought to have drifted out to sea via strong currents.
