Area Police
Around 50 cars have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, walls and postboxes were defaced, in some cases with swastikas, they announced in a release.
Officers say they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued liquid.
The fluid had been drawn in the form of a banned symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then discovered multiple other smeared automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement report initial examinations show the liquid was probably human blood.
"At present there remains no indication as to where it came from; investigators are currently not aware of any physical harm in relation with the event," they commented.
City officials said they were attempting "to resolve the incident" and have requested to the community for details.
A high-ranking official commented the attack rendered him speechless and needed to be addressed quickly.
"This act affects the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on social media, mentioning the death of nine people by a shooter targeting people of migrant background in five years prior.
