Area Police
Roughly 50 vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, building surfaces and postal boxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a statement.
Officers state they were notified late on Wednesday, when a man noticed that a car in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored fluid.
The liquid had been applied in the shape of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then discovered numerous other vandalized vehicles and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement report initial examinations show the fluid was probably blood from a person.
"At present there remains no clue as to its source; investigators are currently not informed of any physical harm in connection with the event," they commented.
Municipal representatives said they were attempting "to unravel the case" and have appealed to the community for details.
An important representative commented the vandalism made him without words and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This incident affects the core of Hanau and revives the trauma of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he stated on online, recalling the death of nine victims by a assailant focusing on residents of immigrant origin in five years prior.
