Vehicles in Germany's Town Discovered Marked with Swastikas in Human Blood, Law Enforcement Report
Local Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty automobiles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to police.
Automobiles, building surfaces and postboxes were defaced, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement report they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored liquid.
The substance had been drawn in the form of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then found numerous other marked vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement say early analysis show the liquid was likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no indication as to its source; authorities are presently not informed of any harm in relation with the incident," they stated.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the public for information.
An important political figure commented the attack left him without words and required to be solved promptly.
"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and revives the wounds of the extremist terrorist attack in 2020," he posted on a platform, referring to the death of nine people by a shooter focusing on people of foreign heritage in February 2020.
