Cars in German City Discovered Covered with Nazi Symbols in Blood, Police Confirm

Incident location Affected vehicle Area Police
Authorities stated they were notified by a individual who noticed a automobile in Hanau covered with red-colored substance

Approximately fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be blood from a person in the German town of Hanau near Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.

Automobiles, walls and postal boxes were defaced, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they reported in a statement.

Law enforcement state they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued fluid.

The liquid had been drawn in the shape of a swastika, they reported.

Law enforcement then discovered numerous other vandalized vehicles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.

Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under regulations prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.

Police state preliminary tests indicate the liquid was most likely human blood.

"Currently there is no lead as to its source; authorities are currently not aware of any injuries in association with the event," they commented.

City officials stated they were trying "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the public for details.

A high-ranking representative said the vandalism made him speechless and required to be resolved promptly.

"This event strikes at the core of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on a platform, recalling the death of nine people by a assailant focusing on people of immigrant origin in 2020.
