Area Law Enforcement
Around 50 automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human blood in the German municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Automobiles, walls and postboxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they stated in a official communication.
Law enforcement say they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a red-colored substance.
The liquid had been applied in the pattern of a banned symbol, they stated.
Police then located numerous other vandalized vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
Nazi symbols are banned in Germany under legislation prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi symbols.
Officials report early analysis indicate the fluid was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no lead as to its source; authorities are currently not cognizant of any injuries in connection with the occurrence," they commented.
City officials stated they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have appealed to the public for tips.
An important representative stated the attack made him without words and required to be solved quickly.
"This event affects the center of Hanau and revives the pain of the right-wing attack five years ago," he wrote on online, mentioning the murder of nine people by a assailant focusing on individuals of migrant background in five years prior.
