Automobiles in German Town Found Covered with Swastikas in Human Blood, Law Enforcement Confirm
Local Police
Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm authorities.
Automobiles, building surfaces and postboxes were defaced, in some cases with swastikas, they reported in a release.
Officers say they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a man observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish liquid.
The substance had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then discovered numerous other smeared vehicles and house walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials state initial examinations suggest the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its origin; authorities are not yet aware of any physical harm in association with the incident," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to unravel the case" and have asked to the community for details.
An important official stated the incident rendered him speechless and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This incident affects the center of Hanau and revives the trauma of the right-wing violent incident in 2020," he wrote on online, referring to the murder of nine people by a assailant targeting individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
