Local Police
Approximately fifty automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm authorities.
Cars, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Police report they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored fluid.
The fluid had been placed in the form of a swastika, they stated.
Law enforcement then found numerous other marked automobiles and house walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials say preliminary tests show the liquid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"There is still no clue as to where it came from; officials are currently not informed of any physical harm in association with the incident," they stated.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to unravel the mystery" and have asked to the community for details.
An important official said the vandalism made him speechless and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This event hits the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the right-wing terrorist attack in 2020," he stated on online, referring to the death of nine individuals by a shooter targeting people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
