Automobiles in Germany's City Found Marked with Swastikas in Human Blood, Law Enforcement Confirm
Local Police
Roughly fifty cars have been marked with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Cars, exterior walls and mailboxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were contacted late on Wednesday evening, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored fluid.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a banned symbol, they stated.
Police then located many other marked vehicles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under laws banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials say early analysis indicate the substance was probably human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to where it came from; officials are not yet aware of any injuries in connection with the event," they added.
Municipal representatives announced they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the residents for information.
A senior official said the attack rendered him stunned and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This event hits the very heart of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the far-right violent incident in 2020," he stated on online, recalling the death of nine individuals by a gunman targeting individuals of immigrant origin in 2020.
