Local Police
Approximately 50 cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Vehicles, walls and postal boxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a statement.
Law enforcement report they were contacted late on Wednesday evening, when a resident observed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish liquid.
The fluid had been placed in the shape of a swastika, they stated.
Officers then located multiple other marked automobiles and house walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under regulations banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials state early analysis suggest the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"There is still no lead as to its origin; authorities are presently not informed of any harm in connection with the incident," they added.
Municipal representatives stated they were trying "to solve the incident" and have asked to the residents for details.
An important official said the incident left him speechless and required to be solved promptly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he posted on social media, referring to the death of nine people by a shooter targeting residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
