Automobiles in Germany's City Found Covered with Nazi Symbols in Human Blood, Police State

Incident location Affected vehicle Area Law Enforcement
Police reported they were notified by a resident who found a car in Hanau covered with reddish liquid

Around fifty automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.

Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were marked, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they reported in a official communication.

Police say they were notified during the night on Wednesday night, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish substance.

The fluid had been applied in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.

Officers then found many other vandalized vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.

These symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the public display of Nazi-era symbols.

Law enforcement say initial examinations indicate the substance was likely human bodily fluid.

"There is still no lead as to its source; authorities are presently not aware of any injuries in relation with the occurrence," they stated.

City officials announced they were trying "to unravel the mystery" and have appealed to the residents for information.

A high-ranking representative commented the incident made him speechless and had to be solved quickly.

"This event strikes at the very heart of Hanau and revives the pain of the far-right attack half a decade ago," he posted on online, recalling the murder of nine individuals by a assailant aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in 2020.
