Local Police
Roughly fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's town of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and mailboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they reported in a official communication.
Law enforcement say they were alerted during the night on Wednesday evening, when a man discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish fluid.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then discovered multiple other smeared cars and house walls in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws outlawing the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Police report preliminary tests show the fluid was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no clue as to where it came from; investigators are presently not informed of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they stated.
Local authorities stated they were attempting "to solve the mystery" and have appealed to the community for details.
A high-ranking representative said the vandalism made him stunned and needed to be resolved promptly.
"This event hits the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the far-right terrorist attack in 2020," he wrote on social media, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a shooter targeting individuals of immigrant origin in five years prior.
