Area Police
Around fifty vehicles have been covered with what seems to be human blood in the Germany's municipality of Hanau close to Frankfurt, police confirm police.
Vehicles, walls and postboxes were vandalized, occasionally with Nazi symbols, they stated in a statement.
Officers say they were notified late on Wednesday night, when a individual discovered that a automobile in the Lamboy area of Hanau had been covered with a reddish substance.
The fluid had been applied in the form of a swastika, they added.
Police then located multiple other smeared automobiles and residential walls in the nearby vicinity.
These symbols are prohibited in Germany under laws banning the visible presentation of Nazi-era symbols.
Police state initial examinations suggest the liquid was probably human blood.
"At present there remains no lead as to its origin; authorities are presently not informed of any injuries in connection with the occurrence," they commented.
Local authorities stated they were working "to unravel the incident" and have appealed to the residents for tips.
An important representative stated the attack rendered him stunned and required to be resolved rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the pain of the far-right terrorist attack half a decade ago," he stated on social media, mentioning the death of nine individuals by a assailant aiming at people of migrant background in five years prior.
