Vehicles in Germany's Town Found Smeared with Swastikas in Blood, Police Confirm
Area Law Enforcement
Roughly 50 automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, walls and postal boxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they announced in a release.
Officers report they were alerted late on Wednesday night, when a man observed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Officers then found numerous other vandalized automobiles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police report initial examinations show the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no lead as to its origin; officials are presently not informed of any harm in association with the incident," they commented.
City officials stated they were trying "to solve the case" and have appealed to the public for details.
A high-ranking representative stated the vandalism left him speechless and had to be solved rapidly.
"This incident affects the very heart of Hanau and reopens the pain of the extremist attack in 2020," he stated on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine individuals by a assailant targeting residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
