Vehicles in German City Discovered Smeared with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Police State
Local Law Enforcement
Around fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Automobiles, exterior walls and mailboxes were defaced, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they announced in a statement.
Officers report they were alerted during the night on Wednesday, when a man 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 form of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then discovered multiple other smeared vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Officials state early analysis show the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"There is still no clue as to its origin; officials are presently not cognizant of any harm in association with the event," they added.
City officials stated they were attempting "to resolve the mystery" and have appealed to the community for details.
A high-ranking representative commented the attack rendered him speechless and needed to be solved promptly.
"This incident affects the very heart of Hanau and revives the pain of the far-right violent incident half a decade ago," he wrote on online, referring to the murder of nine people by a gunman targeting people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
