Local Police
Approximately fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Cars, walls and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with swastikas, they stated in a statement.
Police say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a man noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish fluid.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then found numerous other smeared cars and house walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under laws outlawing the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Officials report preliminary tests show the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; authorities are currently not cognizant of any harm in connection with the event," they stated.
City officials announced they were trying "to resolve the case" and have appealed to the community for information.
A high-ranking official stated the vandalism made him without words and required to be solved rapidly.
"This incident affects the very heart of Hanau and revives the trauma of the far-right attack in 2020," he wrote on social media, mentioning the murder of nine people by a assailant aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in five years prior.
