Area Law Enforcement
Around fifty vehicles have been covered with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postal boxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they reported in a official communication.
Police state they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish liquid.
The liquid had been applied in the form of a swastika, they added.
Officers then located multiple other marked cars and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are banned in Germany under legislation banning the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement report early analysis show the fluid was most likely blood from a person.
"There is still no clue as to its source; investigators are currently not aware of any physical harm in association with the event," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were trying "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the residents for information.
An important official stated the vandalism made him without words and needed to be resolved rapidly.
"This act affects the core of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the extremist attack five years ago," he stated on social media, recalling the murder of nine victims by a gunman aiming at people of foreign heritage in five years prior.
