Local Police
Roughly 50 automobiles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Officers report they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Police then found many other smeared automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement say early analysis suggest the liquid was probably human blood.
"There is still no indication as to its source; investigators are not yet cognizant of any harm in association with the event," they stated.
Local authorities said they were attempting "to resolve the case" and have requested to the community for information.
An important political figure commented the incident left him without words and required to be solved quickly.
"This event hits the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the extremist violent incident half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, recalling the murder of nine victims by a assailant targeting people of migrant background in 2020.
