Area Law Enforcement
Approximately 50 cars have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, exterior walls and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they stated in a release.
Police state they were contacted late on Wednesday evening, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored fluid.
The substance had been applied in the pattern of a swastika, they added.
Officers then found multiple other marked vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under laws outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement report early analysis show the liquid was most likely human blood.
"At present there remains no clue as to where it came from; investigators are currently not aware of any physical harm in relation with the event," they stated.
City officials stated they were attempting "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the community for tips.
A senior representative said the attack made him without words and had to be solved quickly.
"This act strikes at the core of Hanau and revives the wounds of the extremist terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on a platform, recalling the murder of nine victims by a assailant aiming at residents of immigrant origin in five years prior.
