Cars in German Town Found Covered with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Law Enforcement State
Area Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with swastikas, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were alerted late on Wednesday, when a man observed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued fluid.
The fluid had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then found numerous other smeared automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Police state initial examinations indicate the substance was probably blood from a person.
"There is still no indication as to its source; authorities are presently not informed of any injuries in relation with the occurrence," they stated.
Local authorities stated they were attempting "to resolve the incident" and have appealed to the residents for information.
An important official said the vandalism made him without words and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This act affects the center of Hanau and revives the wounds of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine people by a gunman targeting residents of foreign heritage in five years prior.
