Local Police
Around fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, exterior walls and postboxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a release.
Officers say they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a man noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued fluid.
The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a banned symbol, they stated.
Officers then found numerous other marked vehicles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Police state early analysis show the substance was likely human blood.
"Currently there is no lead as to its origin; officials are currently not aware of any physical harm in relation with the occurrence," they added.
Municipal representatives announced they were attempting "to solve the case" and have requested to the community for information.
An important representative commented the vandalism made him stunned and required to be addressed quickly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the far-right attack in 2020," he wrote on online, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a assailant targeting individuals of migrant background in five years prior.
