Area Police
Approximately 50 vehicles have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and postboxes were marked, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a statement.
Officers report they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued substance.
The substance had been drawn in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Officers then discovered numerous other marked vehicles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under regulations prohibiting the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Police say preliminary tests show the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; investigators are presently not informed of any injuries in relation with the occurrence," they commented.
Municipal representatives stated they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have appealed to the residents for details.
A high-ranking representative said the vandalism made him speechless and had to be resolved quickly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and reopens the pain of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he wrote on a platform, recalling the death of nine victims by a assailant aiming at people of migrant background in 2020.
