Local Law Enforcement
Around 50 vehicles have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were marked, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Officers state they were notified during the night on Wednesday, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The liquid had been drawn in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Officers then discovered multiple other vandalized cars and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police say initial examinations show the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no indication as to its origin; investigators are presently not cognizant of any harm in association with the event," they stated.
City officials announced they were attempting "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the residents for details.
A senior representative commented the attack rendered him without words and required to be resolved promptly.
"This event strikes at the center of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the far-right violent incident five years ago," he wrote on social media, mentioning the killing of nine individuals by a assailant focusing on people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
