Automobiles in German City Discovered Covered with Swastikas in Human Blood, Police Report
Area Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they stated in a statement.
Police say they were alerted during the night on Wednesday evening, when a resident noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish substance.
The liquid had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then located many other marked automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police report preliminary tests suggest the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no indication as to its source; officials are currently not cognizant of any injuries in association with the event," they stated.
Municipal representatives stated they were attempting "to solve the case" and have asked to the public for details.
A senior official stated the attack rendered him speechless and required to be addressed quickly.
"This act hits the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on online, referring to the killing of nine people by a gunman focusing on individuals of immigrant origin in February 2020.
