Roughly fifty vehicles have been smeared with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau near Frankfurt, as reported by law enforcement.
Vehicles, walls and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a statement.
Officers state they were alerted during the night on Wednesday night, when a man discovered that a vehicle in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish fluid.
The fluid had been drawn in the shape of a swastika, they reported.
Officers then located numerous other vandalized cars and house walls in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials report preliminary tests indicate the substance was likely human blood.
"Currently there is no lead as to where it came from; officials are currently not cognizant of any injuries in connection with the occurrence," they stated.
Municipal representatives announced they were working "to solve the case" and have appealed to the public for information.
An important political figure commented the attack made him stunned and had to be solved rapidly.
"This incident hits the center of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right attack five years ago," he posted on a platform, mentioning the killing of nine victims by a shooter aiming at people of immigrant origin in February 2020.
