Area Police
Around 50 automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Cars, building surfaces and postboxes were marked, in some cases with swastikas, they reported in a official communication.
Officers report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual discovered that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then located many other vandalized automobiles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under laws prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials say early analysis suggest the fluid was probably blood from a person.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; investigators are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in association with the event," they commented.
City officials said they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the residents for tips.
A high-ranking representative stated the vandalism left him without words and required to be resolved promptly.
"This act hits the center of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the far-right terrorist attack five years ago," he stated on a platform, recalling the killing of nine people by a shooter aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in five years prior.
