Area Police
Around 50 cars have been marked with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to authorities.
Vehicles, walls and postboxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a release.
Police say they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored liquid.
The liquid had been placed in the pattern of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then discovered multiple other vandalized automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under legislation banning the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement say early analysis show the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no indication as to where it came from; officials are presently not aware of any harm in connection with the event," they commented.
Municipal representatives said they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have requested to the residents for information.
A high-ranking official said the vandalism left him speechless and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing attack in 2020," he wrote on online, referring to the death of nine individuals by a gunman aiming at individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
