Area Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the German town of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Police state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a individual observed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued liquid.
The substance had been applied in the shape of a swastika, they added.
Officers then located multiple other smeared automobiles and house walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials report early analysis suggest the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"There is still no indication as to where it came from; authorities are presently not informed of any injuries in connection with the event," they added.
Local authorities stated they were trying "to solve the incident" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
An important political figure commented the attack made him speechless and required to be solved promptly.
"This act affects the very heart of Hanau and reopens the pain of the far-right terrorist attack in 2020," he stated on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a assailant targeting individuals of immigrant origin in five years prior.
