Area Police
Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Police state they were notified during the night on Wednesday, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored liquid.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Officers then located numerous other vandalized cars and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Officials say preliminary tests show the fluid was probably human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no clue as to its source; officials are currently not aware of any physical harm in relation with the occurrence," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to resolve the case" and have asked to the community for information.
A senior political figure stated the vandalism rendered him speechless and had to be solved promptly.
"This event hits the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the far-right terrorist attack five years ago," he posted on online, recalling the death of nine victims by a gunman focusing on people of foreign heritage in 2020.
