Vehicles in German Town Discovered Smeared with Swastikas in Blood, Police State
Area Police
Around fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the German municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, exterior walls and mailboxes were defaced, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they stated in a statement.
Police say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a banned symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then found many other vandalized cars and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement report preliminary tests show the substance was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no clue as to its origin; authorities are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the event," they added.
Local authorities said they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the community for tips.
An important political figure stated the incident left him speechless and had to be resolved promptly.
"This event affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on online, recalling the death of nine individuals by a shooter aiming at residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
