Area Law Enforcement
Approximately 50 vehicles have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were defaced, occasionally with swastikas, they reported in a official communication.
Officers say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a man noticed that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish fluid.
The liquid had been drawn in the form of a swastika, they reported.
Law enforcement then located numerous other smeared automobiles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Officials state early analysis indicate the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; officials are presently not cognizant of any harm in relation with the event," they commented.
City officials announced they were trying "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the residents for details.
An important representative commented the vandalism rendered him stunned and had to be solved rapidly.
"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and revives the trauma of the right-wing attack half a decade ago," he stated on online, recalling the death of nine victims by a gunman aiming at residents of migrant background in February 2020.
