Automobiles in Germany's Town Discovered Smeared with Swastikas in Human Blood, Police State
Local Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postboxes were defaced, in some cases with swastikas, they reported in a official communication.
Officers say they were alerted during the night on Wednesday night, when a resident observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a banned symbol, they stated.
Officers then located numerous other smeared cars and residential walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Police report initial examinations suggest the fluid was likely human blood.
"There is still no lead as to where it came from; investigators are currently not informed of any physical harm in connection with the event," they stated.
Local authorities said they were trying "to resolve the incident" and have requested to the residents for information.
An important political figure stated the vandalism rendered him stunned and needed to be addressed quickly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine victims by a assailant targeting residents of immigrant origin in February 2020.
