Area Police
Approximately fifty vehicles have been smeared with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, walls and postboxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they stated in a release.
Officers state they were alerted late on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued fluid.
The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Officers then discovered many other marked cars and house walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Police state early analysis indicate the substance was probably blood from a person.
"Currently there is no lead as to its source; investigators are not yet cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the event," they commented.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the public for details.
A high-ranking representative commented the incident left him speechless and required to be solved rapidly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on online, referring to the killing of nine victims by a gunman focusing on people of immigrant origin in 2020.
