Local Police
Roughly fifty cars have been marked with what seems to be blood from a person in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a release.
Police report they were alerted late on Wednesday evening, when a resident observed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored substance.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a banned symbol, they reported.
Police then discovered many other marked vehicles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under laws banning the public exhibition of symbols from the Nazi era.
Law enforcement state early analysis show the liquid was probably human blood.
"Currently there is no clue as to where it came from; authorities are currently not informed of any harm in connection with the event," they added.
City officials announced they were trying "to unravel the case" and have asked to the public for details.
A senior political figure stated the attack left him without words and had to be resolved quickly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he stated on a platform, referring to the death of nine individuals by a gunman focusing on residents of foreign heritage in February 2020.
