Local Law Enforcement
Approximately fifty automobiles have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Cars, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a statement.
Law enforcement report they were alerted during the night on Wednesday night, when a individual noticed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a reddish-hued liquid.
The fluid had been applied in the form of a banned symbol, they reported.
Officers then found numerous other smeared vehicles and building exteriors in the surrounding area.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Officials report preliminary tests suggest the substance was most likely human blood.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; officials are currently not aware of any physical harm in association with the occurrence," they stated.
Municipal representatives said they were trying "to unravel the case" and have asked to the public for information.
An important representative stated the vandalism left him stunned and required to be addressed promptly.
"This act hits the center of Hanau and reopens the pain of the right-wing violent incident five years ago," he wrote on social media, referring to the killing of nine individuals by a assailant focusing on people of foreign heritage in 2020.
