Local Law Enforcement
Around fifty vehicles have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Cars, exterior walls and postboxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement report they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a reddish liquid.
The fluid had been placed in the pattern of a swastika, they stated.
Officers then located numerous other smeared automobiles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement say early analysis suggest the liquid was likely human blood.
"At present there remains no clue as to its source; investigators are not yet informed of any physical harm in relation with the event," they added.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to solve the case" and have appealed to the public for details.
A high-ranking political figure stated the vandalism rendered him without words and required to be resolved quickly.
"This event strikes at the very heart of Hanau and revives the pain of the extremist attack five years ago," he posted on social media, recalling the death of nine individuals by a assailant focusing on people of migrant background in 2020.
