Automobiles in Germany's City Discovered Covered with Swastikas in Human Blood, Law Enforcement State
Local Law Enforcement
Around fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Automobiles, walls and mailboxes were marked, sometimes with swastikas, they stated in a official communication.
Officers state they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a resident discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish fluid.
The liquid had been drawn in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then located multiple other vandalized vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials say preliminary tests show the substance was probably human blood.
"At present there remains no clue as to its source; officials are not yet cognizant of any harm in relation with the event," they commented.
City officials stated they were working "to solve the case" and have requested to the public for details.
A senior representative commented the incident made him stunned and had to be solved quickly.
"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on social media, referring to the killing of nine people by a shooter focusing on individuals of foreign heritage in 2020.
