Area Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with swastikas, they announced in a official communication.
Law enforcement state they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored fluid.
The substance had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Police then found numerous other smeared cars and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Nazi symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws banning the public display of Nazi symbols.
Law enforcement state initial examinations indicate the fluid was likely human blood.
"There is still no indication as to its origin; authorities are not yet cognizant of any harm in association with the occurrence," they stated.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to unravel the mystery" and have appealed to the residents for details.
An important political figure commented the attack made him without words and required to be resolved promptly.
"This event affects the very heart of Hanau and reopens the pain of the far-right attack five years ago," he posted on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine victims by a gunman targeting individuals of foreign heritage in February 2020.
