Cars in German City Discovered Marked with Swastikas in Human Blood, Police State
Area Police
Roughly 50 cars have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postal boxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a statement.
Officers report they were contacted during the night on Wednesday, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored fluid.
The fluid had been drawn in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Officers then discovered multiple other smeared automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws outlawing the public display of symbols from the Nazi era.
Police say preliminary tests show the liquid was probably blood from a person.
"There is still no lead as to where it came from; officials are not yet aware of any harm in connection with the occurrence," they stated.
City officials said they were attempting "to solve the case" and have asked to the public for tips.
A high-ranking political figure stated the vandalism left him without words and required to be resolved quickly.
"This event affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing attack in 2020," he stated on a platform, recalling the death of nine victims by a shooter targeting individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
