Local Law Enforcement
Roughly 50 cars have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and mailboxes were marked, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement say they were alerted late on Wednesday, when a man observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish liquid.
The fluid had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then found multiple other marked cars and house walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are banned in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement state initial examinations suggest the liquid was likely human blood.
"At present there remains no indication as to its source; officials are currently not cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the occurrence," they commented.
Municipal representatives announced they were attempting "to unravel the case" and have requested to the public for information.
An important representative stated the vandalism made him stunned and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This event hits the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right terrorist attack half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, mentioning the death of nine victims by a assailant aiming at people of migrant background in 2020.
