Local Law Enforcement
Roughly fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the German town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were marked, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they stated in a release.
Police report they were contacted late on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a banned symbol, they added.
Police then discovered multiple other marked cars and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under laws outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement say initial examinations show the liquid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"There is still no lead as to its origin; investigators are not yet cognizant of any harm in relation with the occurrence," they commented.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the public for details.
A senior representative said the attack made him without words and needed to be addressed quickly.
"This act affects the core of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, referring to the killing of nine individuals by a assailant targeting people of immigrant origin in 2020.
