Area Police
Approximately fifty automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, building surfaces and mailboxes were defaced, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they stated in a release.
Officers say they were contacted late on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The liquid had been applied in the form of a swastika, they added.
Police then located numerous other marked automobiles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under regulations prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials say early analysis show the fluid was probably human blood.
"There is still no lead as to where it came from; authorities are currently not cognizant of any harm in relation with the incident," they commented.
City officials stated they were working "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the public for details.
A senior official said the attack rendered him without words and needed to be solved promptly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the far-right violent incident half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, referring to the killing of nine victims by a shooter focusing on residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
