Cars in German City Discovered Covered with Swastikas in Blood, Law Enforcement State

Incident location Affected vehicle Area Law Enforcement
Police reported they were alerted by a man who noticed a car in Hanau covered with red-colored substance

Around fifty automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.

Automobiles, walls and postboxes were defaced, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a release.

Law enforcement say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored fluid.

The substance had been applied in the shape of a banned symbol, they reported.

Law enforcement then discovered numerous other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.

Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under laws banning the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.

Law enforcement report initial examinations suggest the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.

"Currently there is no clue as to where it came from; investigators are currently not informed of any injuries in connection with the event," they stated.

Municipal representatives stated they were working "to resolve the case" and have appealed to the community for information.

A senior representative said the vandalism rendered him stunned and required to be resolved quickly.

"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and revives the wounds of the extremist violent incident five years ago," he posted on a platform, referring to the death of nine individuals by a gunman targeting residents of foreign heritage in 2020.
