Local Police
Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Cars, walls and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they reported in a statement.
Police state they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a resident discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued liquid.
The fluid had been applied in the form of a banned symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then located numerous other vandalized automobiles and house walls in the surrounding area.
Swastikas are prohibited in Germany under legislation banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials state preliminary tests suggest the substance was probably human blood.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; officials are presently not cognizant of any physical harm in connection with the incident," they added.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to solve the case" and have appealed to the community for details.
An important representative stated the attack made him stunned and had to be addressed promptly.
"This incident strikes at the core of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the far-right violent incident half a decade ago," he stated on social media, recalling the murder of nine people by a shooter aiming at people of immigrant origin in five years prior.
