A strange sight in Cedar Falls on Wednesday morning. At approximately 9:00 AM on May 3rd, Cedar Falls officials were called to an unusual roadway scene.

Authorities were directed to the  intersection of Hudson Road and University Avenue where someone reported that a severed human limb was lying in the middle of the roadway.

Upon closer inspection, it looked like a human foot...

In reality, it was a fake human foot...actually a set of feet.

Officials quickly figured out that these road impediments were actually a set of rubber feet. They were collected by their proper owners, according to a statement from Cedar Falls Public Safety.

The case is now closed.

So, nothing strange was a-foot...

It was a toe-tally strange experience...

You'd have to be completely sole-less not to freak out over this incident...

Local authorities are on high alert after a corpse was discovered in Waterloo earlier in the week. A mushroom hunter discovered a tent in a wooded area near La Porte Road. Inside of this tent was a dead baby, that some officials say has been there for some time.
