Vehicles in Germany's City Discovered Covered with Swastikas in Blood, Police Confirm

Incident location Affected vehicle Local Police
Authorities reported they were contacted by a resident who discovered a automobile in Hanau covered with red-colored fluid

Around 50 vehicles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to authorities.

Cars, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a official communication.

Law enforcement state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish liquid.

The liquid had been applied in the form of a Nazi symbol, they added.

Police then discovered numerous other marked vehicles and house walls in the surrounding area.

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

Law enforcement state initial examinations suggest the substance was likely human bodily fluid.

"Currently there is no indication as to its source; authorities are not yet cognizant of any injuries in connection with the incident," they commented.

Municipal representatives stated they were trying "to solve the incident" and have asked to the residents for details.

An important political figure commented the vandalism made him speechless and had to be solved promptly.

"This incident hits the very heart of Hanau and revives the trauma of the right-wing attack five years ago," he posted on online, referring to the death of nine people by a gunman targeting individuals of immigrant origin in 2020.
