Area Law Enforcement
Roughly 50 automobiles have been covered with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they stated in a official communication.
Police say they were alerted during the night on Wednesday night, when a resident noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a swastika, they stated.
Officers then located many other smeared automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under regulations banning the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement say preliminary tests show the substance was probably human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; investigators are currently not aware of any harm in relation with the occurrence," they added.
City officials stated they were trying "to unravel the case" and have asked to the public for tips.
A high-ranking representative commented the incident made him stunned and required to be solved promptly.
"This act affects the core of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the far-right attack in 2020," he posted on social media, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a gunman targeting residents of foreign heritage in five years prior.
