Vehicles in Germany's Town Discovered Covered with Swastikas in Human Blood, Law Enforcement Report
Area Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty cars have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, exterior walls and mailboxes were marked, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they stated in a statement.
Law enforcement say they were alerted late on Wednesday, when a man observed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the form of a banned symbol, they added.
Officers then located numerous other smeared vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under laws prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement state initial examinations indicate the substance was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; investigators are presently not aware of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were working "to solve the case" and have asked to the residents for tips.
An important political figure stated the vandalism rendered him speechless and required to be solved quickly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on online, recalling the death of nine people by a assailant focusing on individuals of migrant background in 2020.
