Roughly fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to police.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, in some cases with prohibited symbols, they announced in a statement.
Police report they were alerted late on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish fluid.
The liquid had been applied in the form of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Officers then located multiple other marked automobiles and house walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Police say preliminary tests show the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its origin; officials are not yet cognizant of any harm in relation with the event," they commented.
Local authorities stated they were working "to unravel the case" and have requested to the public for tips.
An important official stated the vandalism made him stunned and had to be addressed rapidly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and reopens the pain of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he stated on a platform, referring to the murder of nine people by a assailant targeting individuals of foreign heritage in February 2020.
