Local Police
Approximately fifty automobiles have been covered with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Cars, walls and postal boxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a release.
Law enforcement state they were alerted during the night on Wednesday, when a individual observed that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish fluid.
The fluid had been applied in the form of a banned symbol, they stated.
Police then found multiple other vandalized vehicles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under laws banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement report preliminary tests indicate the substance was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no lead as to its source; officials are currently not cognizant of any physical harm in association with the incident," they stated.
Local authorities stated they were working "to resolve the mystery" and have asked to the residents for information.
A senior political figure commented the incident made him stunned and required to be addressed quickly.
"This act strikes at the center of Hanau and revives the trauma of the far-right attack in 2020," he wrote on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine individuals by a gunman targeting people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
