Automobiles in German Town Discovered Marked with Nazi Symbols in Blood, Law Enforcement Report
Local Law Enforcement
Roughly 50 cars have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Automobiles, building surfaces and postal boxes were marked, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Police state they were notified late on Wednesday evening, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish fluid.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a swastika, they reported.
Police then located many other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Police report early analysis show the substance was likely human blood.
"At present there remains no indication as to its origin; investigators are not yet cognizant of any harm in connection with the incident," they stated.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have asked to the residents for information.
A high-ranking representative commented the attack rendered him stunned and had to be addressed rapidly.
"This act affects the center of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine victims by a assailant targeting residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
