Vehicles in German Town Found Smeared with Swastikas in Blood, Law Enforcement State

Incident location Affected vehicle Area Police
Police mentioned they were alerted by a individual who found a car in Hanau marked with reddish liquid

Approximately fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.

Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were marked, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they stated in a release.

Officers state they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a man discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish liquid.

The substance had been applied in the form of a swastika, they reported.

Police then found numerous other vandalized vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.

Swastikas are illegal in Germany under laws banning the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.

Officials state initial examinations show the liquid was probably human blood.

"Currently there is no clue as to its source; investigators are presently not informed of any harm in connection with the incident," they stated.

Municipal representatives stated they were working "to solve the incident" and have requested to the residents for details.

An important representative said the vandalism rendered him speechless and required to be resolved rapidly.

"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he wrote on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine individuals by a assailant aiming at residents of migrant background in February 2020.
