Automobiles in Germany's Town Discovered Smeared with Swastikas in Blood, Police State
Local Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Vehicles, walls and mailboxes were marked, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a man discovered that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored liquid.
The fluid had been drawn in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then found numerous other vandalized automobiles and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under laws prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement state initial examinations indicate the liquid was likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no clue as to its origin; officials are currently not cognizant of any harm in connection with the incident," they commented.
Local authorities stated they were trying "to resolve the incident" and have requested to the residents for tips.
A high-ranking political figure said the incident made him speechless and had to be addressed quickly.
"This incident hits the center of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he stated on social media, recalling the killing of nine individuals by a gunman focusing on residents of migrant background in five years prior.
