Investigators still searching for body parts after dog finds foot

By The Associated Press
Investigators were still searching Wednesday for body parts of a slain woman whose dismembered body was discovered after a dog took a severed human foot back to his yard.<br> <br> "We are still looking for the rest of the remains," said Newton County Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Bill Watterson.<br> <br> "We are up to about 50 percent," he said. "We are doing a grid search looking for parts we do not have."</p><p>The woman whose dog brought home the severed foot Tuesday thought at first it was an early Halloween prank.<br> <br> Her dog had it and she didn't know if it was fake or if it was real," Watterson said. "The dog had it out by the house."<br> <br> The foot was found in a heavily wooded, sparsely populated portion of Newton County off of Georgia Highway 212. Teams of investigators later Tuesday found half of the body of a woman.<br> <br> Watterson said there have been no missing person reports fitting the woman's description.
