Area Police
Approximately 50 automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Automobiles, walls and mailboxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a official communication.
Officers say they were notified during the night on Wednesday night, when a resident discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The substance had been drawn in the shape of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then located numerous other vandalized automobiles and building exteriors in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Officials say early analysis indicate the fluid was probably human blood.
"Currently there is no lead as to its origin; investigators are presently not informed of any injuries in relation with the occurrence," they stated.
City officials said they were trying "to unravel the mystery" and have asked to the public for details.
A high-ranking representative said the attack made him without words and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and reopens the wounds of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on online, referring to the death of nine victims by a gunman aiming at people of foreign heritage in five years prior.
