Local Police
Approximately fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Automobiles, building surfaces and postal boxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a release.
Officers say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored substance.
The substance had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then discovered many other smeared automobiles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Police state initial examinations show the liquid was probably human blood.
"At present there remains no indication as to its source; officials are not yet cognizant of any injuries in relation with the event," they commented.
Local authorities said they were attempting "to solve the incident" and have asked to the community for tips.
A senior political figure commented the attack rendered him speechless and had to be resolved promptly.
"This act hits the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right attack half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine people by a gunman focusing on residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
