Area Police
Around fifty cars have been marked with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's city of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Automobiles, walls and mailboxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Police report they were notified late on Wednesday, when a resident observed that a car in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish substance.
The substance had been applied in the form of a Nazi symbol, they reported.
Police then found multiple other marked automobiles and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
These symbols are illegal in Germany under laws prohibiting the public display of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials report preliminary tests show the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"At present there remains no clue as to its origin; investigators are presently not informed of any injuries in connection with the occurrence," they commented.
City officials stated they were trying "to solve the case" and have requested to the community for details.
A senior political figure commented the attack left him without words and needed to be solved quickly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the extremist violent incident five years ago," he stated on a platform, referring to the death of nine individuals by a gunman targeting residents of foreign heritage in five years prior.
