Vehicles in German City Discovered Marked with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Police State
Area Police
Around 50 automobiles have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Officers state they were notified late on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored substance.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then discovered many other smeared cars and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement report preliminary tests suggest the substance was most likely human blood.
"At present there remains no clue as to where it came from; officials are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they added.
Local authorities stated they were trying "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the public for details.
A high-ranking political figure stated the incident made him without words and needed to be addressed promptly.
"This incident hits the center of Hanau and revives the trauma of the extremist violent incident five years ago," he wrote on social media, referring to the death of nine individuals by a assailant targeting individuals of foreign heritage in 2020.
