Local Police
Roughly 50 vehicles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postal boxes were defaced, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement say they were notified during the night on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish liquid.
The substance had been drawn in the form of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then located many other smeared automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials state early analysis show the substance was most likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no indication as to where it came from; investigators are presently not aware of any injuries in association with the event," they added.
City officials said they were working "to resolve the mystery" and have asked to the community for details.
An important representative commented the vandalism made him without words and required to be resolved quickly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the right-wing attack in 2020," he stated on online, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a assailant focusing on people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
