Local Police
Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what seems to be blood from a person in the German town of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Automobiles, exterior walls and postal boxes were vandalized, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they reported in a release.
Police state they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual observed that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a swastika, they added.
Police then discovered many other vandalized vehicles and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are banned in Germany under legislation prohibiting the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials report early analysis indicate the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no indication as to its origin; investigators are presently not cognizant of any injuries in association with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the public for details.
A high-ranking political figure commented the vandalism rendered him without words and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This event affects the core of Hanau and reopens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on online, recalling the murder of nine victims by a assailant focusing on individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
