Local Law Enforcement
Around 50 automobiles have been marked with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's town of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, according to law enforcement.
Vehicles, walls and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they stated in a statement.
Officers state they were notified during the night on Wednesday, when a individual noticed that a car in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been drawn in the pattern of a Nazi symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then found many other vandalized vehicles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi-era symbols.
Law enforcement state preliminary tests indicate the fluid was likely human blood.
"There is still no clue as to its source; investigators are presently not aware of any harm in connection with the occurrence," they stated.
Local authorities announced they were working "to unravel the case" and have requested to the public for information.
An important representative stated the attack left him without words and required to be solved promptly.
"This event hits the core of Hanau and reopens the trauma of the extremist attack in 2020," he posted on social media, referring to the murder of nine individuals by a assailant targeting residents of immigrant origin in five years prior.
