Area Police
Approximately fifty cars have been smeared with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, exterior walls and postal boxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were notified 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 substance.
The liquid had been placed in the form of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then located numerous other smeared automobiles and house walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement report preliminary tests indicate the liquid was likely human blood.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; investigators are not yet cognizant of any injuries in association with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to solve the case" and have requested to the community for tips.
A senior representative commented the vandalism rendered him stunned and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This act affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack in 2020," he wrote on social media, referring to the murder of nine individuals by a shooter focusing on people of foreign heritage in 2020.
