Local Police
Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be blood from a person in the German municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, walls and mailboxes were marked, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they stated in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were contacted late on Wednesday evening, when a resident observed that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued substance.
The fluid had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Officers then found many other smeared vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Officials say early analysis suggest the substance was likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no clue as to its origin; officials are not yet informed of any harm in connection with the incident," they commented.
Municipal representatives stated they were trying "to solve the case" and have asked to the community for details.
A senior political figure stated the vandalism left him speechless and needed to be addressed promptly.
"This incident hits the core of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he posted on a platform, referring to the murder of nine people by a shooter targeting individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
