Automobiles in Germany's City Discovered Smeared with Nazi Symbols in Blood, Police Confirm

Incident location Affected vehicle Area Law Enforcement
Police reported they were contacted by a individual who found a automobile in Hanau marked with reddish substance

Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.

Cars, exterior walls and mailboxes were vandalized, sometimes with swastikas, they reported in a statement.

Police report they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual observed that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored substance.

The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.

Officers then found numerous other marked cars and house walls in the surrounding area.

Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under regulations banning the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.

Law enforcement say early analysis indicate the fluid was likely blood from a person.

"Currently there is no lead as to its origin; officials are presently not informed of any injuries in relation with the event," they commented.

Municipal representatives announced they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have appealed to the residents for information.

A high-ranking official commented the incident left him speechless and required to be addressed rapidly.

"This event affects the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine victims by a gunman targeting individuals of migrant background in five years prior.
