Area Law Enforcement
Approximately 50 cars have been marked with what appears to be human bodily fluid in the Germany's municipality of Hanau in proximity to Frankfurt, as reported by police.
Vehicles, building surfaces and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with swastikas, they announced in a statement.
Law enforcement state they were contacted in the late hours on Wednesday evening, when a man observed that a automobile in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been smeared with a reddish fluid.
The substance had been placed in the shape of a banned symbol, they reported.
Officers then located multiple other marked cars and residential walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under regulations banning the visible presentation of Nazi symbols.
Police state early analysis suggest the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no indication as to its source; authorities are presently not aware of any injuries in relation with the incident," they commented.
Municipal representatives announced they were trying "to solve the case" and have requested to the residents for information.
An important representative stated the vandalism made him without words and required to be addressed quickly.
"This act strikes at the very heart of Hanau and revives the wounds of the far-right terrorist attack half a decade ago," he posted on a platform, mentioning the murder of nine individuals by a assailant focusing on residents of foreign heritage in 2020.
