Area Police
Approximately fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be blood from a person in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Automobiles, walls and postal boxes were defaced, sometimes with prohibited symbols, they announced in a release.
Officers state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a individual observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored liquid.
The substance had been drawn in the shape of a banned symbol, they stated.
Police then located many other smeared vehicles and residential walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under regulations prohibiting the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Officials report early analysis indicate the liquid was likely human blood.
"Currently there is no clue as to where it came from; investigators are currently not informed of any physical harm in association with the incident," they stated.
City officials said they were attempting "to unravel the case" and have requested to the community for tips.
A high-ranking representative said the attack rendered him speechless and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This incident affects the very heart of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack half a decade ago," he wrote on online, mentioning the killing of nine victims by a shooter aiming at people of migrant background in February 2020.
