Area Police
Roughly 50 automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Cars, walls and postal boxes were vandalized, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a statement.
Officers say they were contacted during the night on Wednesday night, when a man discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Officers then found numerous other smeared automobiles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are banned in Germany under regulations prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police report initial examinations suggest the substance was probably blood from a person.
"Currently there is no clue as to its source; officials are not yet cognizant of any harm in association with the incident," they commented.
City officials announced they were attempting "to resolve the mystery" and have requested to the community for information.
A senior political figure said the incident made him stunned and needed to be solved promptly.
"This event strikes at the center of Hanau and revives the pain of the far-right attack five years ago," he posted on social media, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a shooter focusing on residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
