Local Police
Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postal boxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a statement.
Law enforcement state they were notified during the night on Wednesday evening, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored substance.
The substance had been placed in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Officers then discovered numerous other vandalized vehicles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under legislation prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Officials say preliminary tests suggest the substance was likely blood from a person.
"There is still no clue as to where it came from; officials are not yet cognizant of any physical harm in association with the occurrence," they stated.
Municipal representatives stated they were attempting "to solve the incident" and have requested to the public for details.
A high-ranking official said the attack rendered him without words and needed to be solved promptly.
"This incident hits the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the right-wing terrorist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on social media, referring to the killing of nine victims by a gunman aiming at individuals of migrant background in 2020.
