Area Law Enforcement
Around fifty automobiles have been smeared with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Cars, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, in some cases with swastikas, they stated in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a resident noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the shape of a swastika, they reported.
Law enforcement then discovered multiple other marked vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under laws outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials say initial examinations suggest the liquid was likely human blood.
"Currently there is no clue as to its origin; authorities are not yet informed of any physical harm in association with the event," they commented.
City officials said they were working "to resolve the incident" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
An important political figure commented the attack left him stunned and required to be solved promptly.
"This event hits the very heart of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the far-right terrorist attack half a decade ago," he posted on online, mentioning the murder of nine people by a shooter focusing on residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
