Prosthetic leg washes ashore in Jacksonville Florida; Willie Nelson sticker attached

You would think that a prosthetic leg would be hard to miss, or at the very least hard to forget about and leave behind.

But that's what the Jacksonville Beach Police Department has in its property room right now, discovered Thursday on the beach near 10th Avenue North.

Sgt. Thomas Bingham, the police spokesman, said a man brought the left leg in after it apparently washed ashore, also posting the missing limb on jacksonville.craigslist.org.

"There are no markings on it except for a Willie Nelson sticker," Bingham said. "It's kind of hard to forget."

The sergeant said the prosthetic leg has a distinctive coloration and markings, so whoever lost it should be able to identify it if they come to the department at 101 S. Penman Road. The owner can also call the police department property room at (904) 247-6196 between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. weekdays.
