Area Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Vehicles, walls and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued fluid.
The liquid had been drawn in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Officers then discovered numerous other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say initial examinations suggest the liquid was probably blood from a person.
"Currently there is no clue as to its origin; officials are currently not informed of any injuries in relation with the incident," they added.
City officials said they were attempting "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the residents for information.
A high-ranking political figure commented the incident rendered him without words and required to be solved promptly.
"This incident affects the core of Hanau and reopens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on online, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a shooter aiming at individuals of immigrant origin in 2020.
