Vehicles in German Town Discovered Marked with Swastikas in Human Blood, Police State
Area Police
Approximately fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they stated in a release.
Law enforcement report they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a man discovered that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored substance.
The liquid had been applied in the shape of a banned symbol, they added.
Officers then discovered multiple other smeared automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials report initial examinations indicate the fluid was most likely human blood.
"At present there remains no lead as to its source; investigators are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in relation with the event," they added.
Local authorities said they were trying "to unravel the case" and have appealed to the residents for information.
A senior representative stated the incident rendered him stunned and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This act affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on online, recalling the murder of nine victims by a shooter focusing on people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
