Cars in German Town Discovered Smeared with Swastikas in Blood, Police State
Local Police
Around 50 cars have been marked with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, walls and postal boxes were defaced, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they stated in a official communication.
Police report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued liquid.
The substance had been applied in the form of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then discovered numerous other vandalized vehicles and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation banning the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say preliminary tests suggest the substance was likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no indication as to where it came from; investigators are not yet aware of any harm in relation with the incident," they stated.
Local authorities stated they were working "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the public for information.
An important official stated the attack left him speechless and required to be resolved rapidly.
"This act affects the center of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a gunman focusing on individuals of migrant background in 2020.
