Cars in German City Found Covered with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Police State
Area Police
Approximately 50 cars have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Cars, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, in some cases with swastikas, they reported in a release.
Police report they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a resident discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been placed in the shape of a swastika, they added.
Officers then discovered numerous other vandalized cars and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement state initial examinations suggest the fluid was likely human blood.
"Currently there is no clue as to its origin; authorities are not yet informed of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to solve the incident" and have appealed to the public for information.
An important official said the attack rendered him stunned and had to be resolved quickly.
"This event strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he posted on a platform, recalling the killing of nine people by a gunman aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in five years prior.
