Cars in Germany's City Discovered Smeared with Nazi Symbols in Blood, Police Confirm

Incident location Affected vehicle Local Police
Authorities stated they were notified by a resident who discovered a vehicle in Hanau smeared with red-colored fluid

Roughly fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.

Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they reported in a release.

Officers state they were alerted during the night on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored liquid.

The fluid had been drawn in the form of a banned symbol, they added.

Law enforcement then discovered multiple other marked vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.

Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.

Police report early analysis show the liquid was probably blood from a person.

"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; officials are not yet informed of any harm in association with the occurrence," they added.

City officials announced they were attempting "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the community for information.

An important representative said the vandalism made him without words and required to be addressed quickly.

"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the far-right violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, referring to the killing of nine victims by a shooter targeting people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
