Local Police
Approximately fifty cars have been marked with what appears to be human blood in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and mailboxes were vandalized, in some cases with swastikas, they reported in a statement.
Police say they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual discovered that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then located multiple other vandalized automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Officials state initial examinations indicate the liquid was likely blood from a person.
"At present there remains no lead as to where it came from; investigators are currently not aware of any injuries in relation with the event," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have appealed to the public for information.
An important representative said the attack rendered him speechless and required to be resolved promptly.
"This incident strikes at the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the far-right terrorist attack five years ago," he posted on a platform, referring to the murder of nine victims by a shooter targeting individuals of foreign heritage in February 2020.
