Area Police
Around fifty automobiles have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Automobiles, building surfaces and mailboxes were vandalized, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they announced in a release.
Law enforcement report they were alerted late on Wednesday evening, when a resident noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored substance.
The substance had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then found multiple other vandalized cars and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under regulations outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Police say preliminary tests show the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; authorities are presently not cognizant of any harm in association with the occurrence," they added.
City officials announced they were attempting "to resolve the incident" and have asked to the community for information.
A high-ranking representative stated the incident made him without words and had to be resolved promptly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the extremist attack half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine individuals by a shooter focusing on individuals of foreign heritage in February 2020.
