Area Law Enforcement
Around fifty automobiles have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they stated in a statement.
Officers report they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a resident noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued substance.
The fluid had been drawn in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Police then discovered numerous other smeared cars and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say early analysis show the liquid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no clue as to its source; authorities are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in association with the incident," they stated.
City officials stated they were working "to solve the case" and have asked to the community for information.
An important representative stated the incident made him stunned and required to be solved promptly.
"This incident affects the center of Hanau and revives the trauma of the extremist violent incident five years ago," he posted on online, referring to the killing of nine victims by a shooter focusing on residents of foreign heritage in 2020.
