Local Police
Around fifty vehicles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Automobiles, walls and mailboxes were vandalized, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they stated in a statement.
Police state they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the form of a banned symbol, they added.
Officers then found many other marked automobiles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under regulations banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement report preliminary tests suggest the fluid was most likely blood from a person.
"Currently there is no lead as to where it came from; investigators are currently not aware of any injuries in connection with the incident," they added.
Municipal representatives said they were working "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the residents for tips.
An important official said the vandalism left him speechless and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This incident hits the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the extremist terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on social media, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a shooter aiming at residents of migrant background in 2020.
