Local Law Enforcement
Approximately 50 cars have been marked with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Cars, building surfaces and postboxes were marked, occasionally with swastikas, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement report they were contacted late on Wednesday, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued liquid.
The substance had been applied in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then found numerous other vandalized automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are banned in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police say preliminary tests indicate the liquid was probably human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no clue as to its origin; authorities are presently not cognizant of any harm in relation with the event," they commented.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to resolve the mystery" and have asked to the public for tips.
An important official stated the vandalism rendered him stunned and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the far-right violent incident in 2020," he posted on social media, mentioning the death of nine people by a gunman aiming at residents of migrant background in five years prior.
