Approximately fifty vehicles have been marked with what seems to be human bodily fluid in the German city of Hanau close to Frankfurt, as reported by authorities.
Vehicles, exterior walls and postal boxes were defaced, sometimes with Nazi symbols, they reported in a release.
Law enforcement report they were contacted late on Wednesday night, when a resident noticed that a vehicle in the Lamboy neighborhood of Hanau had been marked with a reddish-hued fluid.
The substance had been placed in the form of a banned symbol, they reported.
Law enforcement then found multiple other marked automobiles and building exteriors in the nearby vicinity.
Swastikas are illegal in Germany under legislation outlawing the public display of Nazi symbols.
Police state early analysis indicate the fluid was most likely human bodily fluid.
"Currently there is no lead as to its source; investigators are not yet informed of any harm in relation with the occurrence," they added.
City officials announced they were attempting "to unravel the incident" and have asked to the community for tips.
An important representative stated the attack made him stunned and needed to be solved rapidly.
"This incident strikes at the very heart of Hanau and reawakens the trauma of the right-wing violent incident half a decade ago," he posted on social media, mentioning the killing of nine people by a gunman aiming at individuals of immigrant origin in five years prior.
