Cars in German City Found Smeared with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Police State
Area Police
Approximately 50 cars have been smeared with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Automobiles, exterior walls and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they stated in a statement.
Officers report they were notified late on Wednesday evening, when a man discovered that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a banned symbol, they added.
Police then located many other marked vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under regulations banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Police state preliminary tests indicate the fluid was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no clue as to its origin; officials are not yet aware of any injuries in relation with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to solve the case" and have requested to the community for details.
A high-ranking representative stated the incident made him stunned and had to be addressed rapidly.
"This incident hits the very heart of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing attack five years ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine victims by a gunman aiming at residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
