Around fifty cars have been smeared with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau near Frankfurt, according to police.
Cars, walls and postboxes were vandalized, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they announced in a official communication.
Police state they were notified during the night on Wednesday, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued substance.
The liquid had been drawn in the pattern of a banned symbol, they stated.
Law enforcement then discovered many other marked cars and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under legislation outlawing the visible presentation of symbols from the Nazi era.
Police say preliminary tests indicate the liquid was probably blood from a person.
"Currently there is no indication as to where it came from; investigators are presently not cognizant of any harm in relation with the occurrence," they commented.
City officials stated they were trying "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the community for information.
An important political figure said the vandalism made him stunned and required to be resolved promptly.
"This act hits the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the wounds of the extremist attack in 2020," he posted on social media, mentioning the death of nine people by a shooter aiming at individuals of foreign heritage in five years prior.
