Local Police
Approximately 50 automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Automobiles, exterior walls and mailboxes were defaced, occasionally with prohibited symbols, they reported in a statement.
Police state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a individual observed that a vehicle in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been smeared with a red-colored substance.
The fluid had been applied in the form of a banned symbol, they stated.
Police then found numerous other vandalized cars and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under laws prohibiting the public exhibition of Nazi-era symbols.
Police say early analysis suggest the fluid was likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no clue as to its source; authorities are not yet aware of any injuries in relation with the event," they stated.
Local authorities said they were trying "to solve the mystery" and have requested to the community for details.
An important official said the attack made him without words and required to be resolved promptly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and revives the pain of the far-right terrorist attack five years ago," he stated on a platform, recalling the murder of nine victims by a gunman targeting people of migrant background in February 2020.
