I was reading all other reports and none mention if its a man or womans leg except for daily news.. but then in the same report it mentions they don't know if foot was attached.. I was just wondering how could they tell if its a man or a womans leg just like that..I have not heard any more news on this or if any other parts have been recovered..

Cops are investigating a grisly discovery in the East Village — part of a man’s leg washed up Thursday on the rocks near the FDR Drive, cops said.
The body part — which extends from the knee down — was found against the rocks near E. Ninth St. at about 11:30 a.m., officials said.
It was not immediately disclosed if a foot was attached to the extremity, which was brought to the city Medical Examiner’s office. Further tests will be done to try to determine who the leg belonged to and how it became separated from the person’s body.

No other body parts were discovered in the area.
 
Has anyone heard any updates on this leg? The only update now on the link above is that it was a Mans leg.
 
This still has me wondering . Nothing has ever been mentioned again about this leg or any other body part found floating g in the river.
