Local Police
Approximately fifty vehicles have been covered with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Automobiles, exterior walls and mailboxes were marked, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they reported in a statement.
Officers say they were alerted in the late hours on Wednesday, when a resident noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish liquid.
The fluid had been applied in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Officers then found multiple other marked cars and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under regulations prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Police report initial examinations indicate the liquid was likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; authorities are presently not aware of any harm in association with the event," they stated.
City officials announced they were working "to solve the mystery" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
A high-ranking political figure stated the vandalism made him stunned and had to be resolved rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the right-wing terrorist attack five years ago," he wrote on a platform, referring to the murder of nine individuals by a gunman targeting individuals of migrant background in February 2020.
