Area Law Enforcement
Approximately 50 vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German town of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Cars, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a official communication.
Police say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been placed in the form of a banned symbol, they stated.
Officers then discovered many other vandalized vehicles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say early analysis suggest the substance was probably human blood.
"There is still no lead as to its source; officials are not yet aware of any injuries in association with the event," they commented.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to solve the incident" and have appealed to the residents for information.
An important political figure commented the vandalism rendered him without words and had to be resolved quickly.
"This event hits the core of Hanau and revives the wounds of the right-wing attack in 2020," he wrote on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine victims by a gunman targeting individuals of foreign heritage in February 2020.
