Local Police
Roughly 50 cars have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, police confirm law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were marked, in some cases with Nazi symbols, they announced in a release.
Law enforcement say they were contacted late on Wednesday evening, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been placed in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then discovered numerous other smeared cars and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under laws banning the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Officials state early analysis show the fluid was most likely human blood.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; officials are currently not aware of any harm in association with the occurrence," they added.
Local authorities announced they were attempting "to resolve the case" and have requested to the community for information.
An important political figure said the incident rendered him speechless and required to be resolved rapidly.
"This act hits the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right terrorist attack five years ago," he posted on a platform, referring to the murder of nine individuals by a shooter targeting individuals of foreign heritage in five years prior.
