Local Police
Roughly 50 automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm authorities.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they stated in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were notified late on Wednesday, when a individual observed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored substance.
The fluid had been applied in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Police then found multiple other vandalized cars and residential walls in the surrounding area.
These symbols are banned in Germany under regulations outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials report initial examinations show the substance was probably human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its origin; investigators are presently not informed of any harm in relation with the occurrence," they stated.
Local authorities stated they were working "to unravel the mystery" and have requested to the residents for details.
A high-ranking political figure said the attack made him stunned and needed to be addressed rapidly.
"This act affects the very heart of Hanau and reopens the pain of the extremist terrorist attack in 2020," he stated on online, recalling the murder of nine people by a assailant targeting people of migrant background in 2020.
