Area Law Enforcement
Around 50 vehicles have been marked with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's town of Hanau near Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.
Cars, walls and postal boxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they stated in a statement.
Law enforcement say they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a resident discovered that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored fluid.
The liquid had been drawn in the pattern of a swastika, they added.
Officers then found numerous other vandalized vehicles and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials state preliminary tests indicate the liquid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no lead as to where it came from; investigators are presently not aware of any injuries in association with the incident," they added.
City officials stated they were trying "to resolve the incident" and have asked to the community for information.
A senior representative commented the attack made him speechless and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This act affects the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack in 2020," he wrote on online, mentioning the death of nine victims by a assailant targeting people of migrant background in February 2020.
