Local Law Enforcement
Around fifty cars have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the German town of Hanau near Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.
Automobiles, walls and postal boxes were marked, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were contacted during the night on Wednesday evening, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the shape of a swastika, they stated.
Police then located multiple other vandalized vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under laws banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Police say preliminary tests show the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no clue as to its source; investigators are not yet cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they commented.
Local authorities stated they were trying "to resolve the case" and have appealed to the residents for information.
An important political figure said the incident made him speechless and required to be resolved promptly.
"This incident hits the core of Hanau and reopens the pain of the far-right terrorist attack in 2020," he wrote on online, referring to the murder of nine people by a gunman aiming at people of immigrant origin in five years prior.
