Cars in German Town Discovered Smeared with Nazi Symbols in Blood, Police Report
Area Police
Approximately fifty cars have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm authorities.
Automobiles, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they reported in a statement.
Officers state they were contacted late on Wednesday evening, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish fluid.
The substance had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then located numerous other vandalized automobiles and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are banned in Germany under laws prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials report preliminary tests suggest the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to where it came from; officials are not yet cognizant of any harm in relation with the occurrence," they stated.
City officials announced they were trying "to solve the case" and have requested to the community for information.
An important representative commented the incident made him speechless and had to be resolved quickly.
"This act affects the center of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he posted on online, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a shooter aiming at people of migrant background in February 2020.
