Area Law Enforcement
Roughly 50 automobiles have been marked with what seems to be human blood in the German municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they announced in a release.
Law enforcement say they were notified during the night on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored substance.
The fluid had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then found numerous other marked automobiles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Police report preliminary tests suggest the substance was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no indication as to where it came from; officials are not yet aware of any harm in association with the occurrence," they commented.
Local authorities said they were working "to resolve the incident" and have appealed to the community for information.
A senior official stated the vandalism made him speechless and needed to be addressed rapidly.
"This act strikes at the core of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing attack in 2020," he stated on online, mentioning the murder of nine victims by a assailant aiming at residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
