Approximately fifty cars have been covered with what appears to be blood from a person in the Germany's city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm authorities.
Vehicles, building surfaces and mailboxes were defaced, sometimes with swastikas, they stated in a release.
Police state they were notified in the late hours on Wednesday night, when a resident observed that a automobile in the Lamboy district of Hanau had been covered with a red-colored fluid.
The fluid had been placed in the form of a Nazi symbol, they added.
Law enforcement then located multiple other smeared vehicles and house walls in the adjacent neighborhood.
Swastikas are banned in Germany under laws outlawing the public display of symbols from the Nazi era.
Officials report early analysis indicate the fluid was probably human bodily fluid.
"There is still no clue as to where it came from; investigators are not yet cognizant of any physical harm in relation with the event," they commented.
City officials stated they were attempting "to solve the mystery" and have asked to the residents for tips.
An important official commented the attack left him stunned and had to be solved quickly.
"This event strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the extremist attack in 2020," he wrote on online, recalling the killing of nine victims by a assailant focusing on residents of immigrant origin in 2020.
