Automobiles in Germany's Town Found Smeared with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Police State
Area Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were marked, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement report they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a man discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish substance.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a swastika, they reported.
Police then found numerous other smeared cars and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Police state early analysis indicate the substance was likely human blood.
"Currently there is no clue as to its source; officials are not yet aware of any physical harm in connection with the occurrence," they commented.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to resolve the incident" and have asked to the public for information.
An important official stated the attack rendered him speechless and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This event hits the core of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he wrote on social media, referring to the murder of nine victims by a assailant targeting residents of foreign heritage in five years prior.
