Automobiles in German City Found Smeared with Swastikas in Human Blood, Police Report
Local Police
Roughly 50 vehicles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.
Automobiles, building surfaces and mailboxes were marked, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued liquid.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then found numerous other smeared automobiles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
These symbols are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials say early analysis suggest the liquid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no clue as to where it came from; officials are presently not aware of any harm in association with the event," they stated.
Local authorities stated they were working "to resolve the incident" and have requested to the community for details.
A high-ranking political figure commented the incident left him stunned and required to be resolved rapidly.
"This act hits the core of Hanau and revives the pain of the far-right attack five years ago," he stated on online, referring to the killing of nine individuals by a assailant aiming at residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
