Automobiles in Germany's City Discovered Marked with Swastikas in Human Blood, Police State
Local Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postboxes were defaced, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they reported in a statement.
Police state they were notified during the night on Wednesday evening, when a man observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued substance.
The fluid had been drawn in the pattern of a banned symbol, they added.
Law enforcement then found multiple other vandalized cars and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say early analysis show the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no clue as to its origin; investigators are presently not cognizant of any injuries in association with the occurrence," they commented.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to resolve the case" and have appealed to the community for tips.
A high-ranking official said the incident rendered him speechless and had to be addressed rapidly.
"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the far-right violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, recalling the death of nine people by a assailant aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in 2020.
