Roughly 50 cars have been covered with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and mailboxes were marked, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Officers then discovered multiple other vandalized automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are banned in Germany under legislation prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Officials report preliminary tests suggest the substance was probably human blood.
"At present there remains no clue as to its origin; officials are presently not informed of any physical harm in relation with the occurrence," they added.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
An important political figure said the incident left him stunned and required to be addressed promptly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the extremist attack half a decade ago," he stated on a platform, recalling the death of nine victims by a assailant focusing on residents of immigrant origin in February 2020.
