Cars in Germany's Town Found Covered with Nazi Symbols in Blood, Police State
Area Police
Approximately 50 vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Automobiles, building surfaces and postal boxes were vandalized, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they stated in a official communication.
Police report they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a man discovered that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish fluid.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Police then found many other marked cars and residential walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement report preliminary tests suggest the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no clue as to its origin; officials are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in association with the event," they commented.
Local authorities stated they were trying "to solve the mystery" and have requested to the public for details.
A senior political figure said the incident left him without words and required to be addressed promptly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he wrote on a platform, referring to the killing of nine people by a gunman focusing on individuals of migrant background in five years prior.
