Local Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Cars, building surfaces and postal boxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Police state they were notified during the night on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The liquid had been drawn in the pattern of a banned symbol, they stated.
Officers then found many other vandalized automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under laws banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Police say early analysis indicate the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; officials are presently not cognizant of any harm in connection with the event," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were trying "to solve the incident" and have requested to the residents for tips.
A high-ranking official stated the vandalism made him speechless and had to be addressed quickly.
"This act affects the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the extremist attack half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, recalling the killing of nine people by a shooter focusing on people of foreign heritage in five years prior.
