🔗 Share this article Vehicles in Germany's Town Discovered Marked with Swastikas in Blood, Police Confirm Area Law Enforcement Police stated they were alerted by a resident who found a vehicle in Hanau marked with red-colored liquid Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities. Cars, exterior walls and postal boxes were defaced, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a statement. Police report they were alerted late on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored substance. The fluid had been applied in the pattern of a swastika, they reported. Law enforcement then located multiple other smeared automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity. Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the public display of Nazi symbols. Police say preliminary tests show the substance was probably human bodily fluid. "At present there remains no lead as to its origin; authorities are presently not informed of any harm in association with the incident," they stated. City officials said they were trying "to solve the case" and have asked to the public for information. A senior representative said the vandalism made him speechless and had to be solved promptly. "This event strikes at the center of Hanau and reopens the pain of the right-wing violent incident in 2020," he wrote on online, recalling the murder of nine people by a assailant targeting residents of immigrant origin in February 2020.
